OV8835
Color CMOS 8 Megapixel (3264 x 2448) Image Sensor with OmniBSI-2 Technology

The OV8835 leverages OmniVision's newly improved OmniBSI-2™ pixel architecture to deliver best-in-class pixel performance to next-generation smartphones and tablets. It is capable of capturing full resolution 8-megapixel high-speed photography at 30 frames per second (fps) or 1080p high definition (HD) video at 30 fps with electronic image stabilization (EIS) and 720p high-definition (HD) video at 60 fps.

The 1/3.2-inch OV8835 is built on an enhanced 1.4-micron OmniBSI-2 pixel that delivers dramatically improved sensitivity of 1000 mV/lux-sec, a 20 percent improvement over the previous generation OV8830. Other performance improvements over the previous generation 8-megapixel image sensor include a 20 percent improvement in low-light performance and more than a 25 percent improvement in full-well capacity.

The new CameraChip™ sensor supports an active array of 3264 x 2448 pixels (8-megapixel) operating at 30 fps for zero shutter lag. Its 2x2 binning functionality with post-binning resampling filter minimizes special artifacts and removes image artifacts around edges to deliver clean, crisp color image quality for industry-leading HD video recording.

The OV8835 fits into an industry standard 8.5 x 8.5 module size and is pin-to-pin compatible with the previous generation OV8830.
