Samsung announces ISOCELL image sensor for mobile

Not to be left behind by the competition’s advancements in mobile camera technology, Samsung has just unveiled their new advanced pixel technology for CMOS image sensors designed for premium mobile devices, the ISOCELL.

ISOCELL

ISOCELL builds on the strengths of a BSI (Back Side Illumination) sensor by improving the way the sensor absorbs light. The new technology “forms a physical barrier between neighboring pixels – isolating the pixel. This isolation enables more photons to be collected from the micro-lens and absorbed into the correct pixel’s photodiode minimizing undesired electrical crosstalk between pixels and allowing expanded full well capacity (FWC).”

Samsung claims that the ISOCELL pixels can decrease crosstalk by about 30 percent which results to higher color fidelity, better sharpness, and greater dynamic range (see image above). However, the company has to sacrifice some camera resolution and dropped it to 8 megapixel in exchange for better image quality.

In addition, ISOCELL can reduce the height of the camera module to make it suitable for slim and small form factor mobile devices with challenging low z-height requirements. The Galaxy S5 or Galaxy Note 4 perhaps?

Samsung is currently sampling their new image sensor to customers but is expected for mass production in Q4 of 2013.

  1. To see is to believe

    na-goyo na tayo ng HTC ONE at LUMIA 1020

    Over-promising and under-delivering is the thing customers don’t want

  2. SAMSUNG = CHEATER

    Do you remember when Samsung cheated on their Android benchmarks for Galaxy S4. LOL.

    At least, Cherry Mobile is much more honest than Samsung and that’s why I love them.

  3. SAMSUNG …. WHY NOT INNOVATE OUR FREEZERS ?

  4. Samsung and Low-light Imaging in one sentence? Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! hindi kapani paniwala.

    Since Nokia is gone and I’m not supporting MS and WP anyway after they’ve done to Nokia, I’ll jump ship to iPhone 5s na.

    iOS 7 looks great and feels great anyway without the lag, and it fits my lifestyle. iOS 7 is Pure, Classy and Easy. I want a phone to do everything for me. I tried S3 last year but the camera is horrible beyond belief. Samsung = low quality talaga.

  5. sa mga iphone bashers na pinagtatawanan ang 8 megapixels (bigger sensor) ng iphone 5S, wala daw improvement same lang daw etc.

    from the article above:
    “However, the company has to sacrifice some camera resolution and dropped it to 8 megapixel in exchange for better image quality.”

    pinagaaralan kasi lahat yan, wag masyado pixel peepers :). walang pinagbago, gumaya na naman ng prinsipyo :D
