Working Principle

The OV07850-N02A-PE image sensor works by converting light into electrical signals. It is capable of capturing and processing full-resolution images even in very low-light environments, such as 0.07 lux. This performance is achieved through a combination of reduced noise, improved image signal-to-noise ratio, and very low power consumption. Additionally, the image sensor features high definition (HD) streaming, dual streaming, global and rolling shutter modes, on-chip video processing, frame-based window-of-interest (WOI) for flexible image capture control, and improved temporal noise reduction algorithm.

The image sensor’s pixel architecture is optimized for sensitivity and light gathering capability, further reducing noise and improving dark scene performance. The OV07850-N02A-PE’s low power consumption and small size make it suitable for embedded systems. It also features integrable lens distortion correction and image compositing, making it ideal for automotive camera applications. Furthermore, the image sensor’s small size and low power consumption means that it requires minimal external components and reduces overall system cost.
