Abstract: Previously, when developing 2/3” imagers with native 4K resolution, it was necessary to decide whether they would support global shutter operation or high-speed operation, as both requirements could not be realized in a single imager. Furthermore, the sensitivity and dynamic range of even the best native 4K imagers did not reach the level that typical 2/3” HD imagers with their larger pixels have been offering for several years. — Now, for the first time, a 2/3” CMOS imager based on a 65nm process offers 9.5 million pixels as required for UHDTV-1 resolution, with charge-domain global shutter operation and an output data rate of up to 114 Gb/s, enabling super slow-motion operation at full resolution. — This paper details the solutions and technologies used in this new generation of imagers and the resulting improved image parameters.
