Pixim D1400 Orca Chipset
Feb 21, 2008 10:22 AM
Pixim Inc. has added to its flagship product series – the Orca family of digital imaging chipsets – with the release of the Pixim 1400 chipset. The chipset is designed for mobile and embedded closed-circuit television (CCTV) applications, helping to produce quality images in environments that experience vibration and in situations where it is not possible or desirable to adjust camera settings. The two-chip video imaging system, based on Pixim’s Digital Pixel System (DPS) technology, includes the image sensor, image processor and necessary intelligence to enable security camera designers to develop high-quality, cost-effective CCTV cameras. Cameras that incorporate the 1400 chipset operate using an uncomplicated “fix, focus and forget” process. It is suitable for use in solid-state wide dynamic range (WDR) cameras where moving parts, such as auto-iris lenses, are impractical or cost-prohibitive.
The D1400 provides up to 102 dB dynamic range in typical operation (120 dB maximum) and is available with either a complementary (CMY) or primary (RGB) color filter array. The image sensors and the video image processor are manufactured through low-power, high-volume commercial CMOS processes, thus allowing camera manufacturers to create high-performance cameras that consume less than 1.5 watts of power.
