OMNIVISION announces new low-power 2MP image sensor for security cameras
OMNIVISION announced the new OS02N, a 2-megapixel (MP) frontside illumination (FSI) image sensor with optimised defective pixel correction (DPC) algorithm for higher sensitivity, improved performance and increased reliability for IP and HD analogue security cameras, including professional surveillance and outdoor home security cameras. The OS02N supports always-on with its low-power capability.
Measuring vibration, linear and angular motion
Applications that require precise information on the linear or angular movement of an object rely on the accuracy of motion sensors within.
Microchip introduces first low pin count MCU family with I3C support
With the step-function increase in data collected and transmitted from cloud-connected edge nodes, Improved Inter Integrated Circuit (I3C) is rapidly becoming a more sustainable solution for interfacing sensors with a high data rate and will help expand capabilities in next-generation devices.
