5 Megapixel Image Sensor for Professional and High-End Consumer Security Cameras

The OS05B CMOS image sensor, which combines the best-in-class pixel technology and quantum efficiency (QE) in a 5 megapixel (MP) design for professional and high-end consumer security cameras, such as industrial and factory surveillance systems, webcams, and high-end baby monitors. The OS05B has a 1/2.78‑inch optical format and its 2.0‑micron BSI pixel is based on the PureCel®Plus technology. It also features OMNIVISION’s Nyxel® near-infrared (NIR) technology for crisp, clear images in low-light conditions.

The OS05B has selective conversion gain – high conversion gain increases sensitivity and reduces the readout noise level while achieving optimum SNR under low-light conditions, and low conversion gain achieves a higher full well capacity in bright conditions. It captures high-resolution video at 60 frames per second with two-exposure staggered HDR. The OS05B supports MIPI and LVDS interfaces.
