It offers electronic rolling-shutter and global-reset-release readout, feeding up to 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 interface at 350 Mb\/s to 2 Gb\/s per lane via an 12-bit ADC. In linear mode the device streams native 4 K video at 60 frames per second; high-dynamic-range operation includes two-exposure line-interleaved HDR and three-exposure embedded HDR at up to 30 fps, producing a composite dynamic range of 120 dB, while a single-exposure extended-dynamic-range mode reaches 45 fps. In FullHD mode sensor can stream up to 120fps. Best suitable for: security camera systems, IoT imaging nodes and connected device cameras, vehicle car DVR (dash cam) recorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Camera module <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kurokesu.com\/shop\/822x-CSI-M12x\" title=\"\">822x-CSI-M12x<\/a> Available in with RGB and Monochrome sensors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">234x-CSI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The AR0234CS is a 2.3-megapixel global shutter CMOS sensor that uses a 3.0\u00b5m pixel array of 1920 x 1200, giving a 1\/2.6&#8243; (6.8mm diagonal) optical format. It outputs 8 or 10 bit RAW through up to four MIPI CSI-2 lanes at 900 Mb\/s per lane. Default streaming reaches 120 fps at full resolution, while a 2&#215;2 binned 960 x 600 window delivers 237fps.
