Mitsubishi Electric Announces Industry's First 4 Mega Pixel CCD Camera Module with Auto-Focus
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announces the industry's first 4-mega-pixel CCD auto-focus camera module for cellular phone use.
Shipment of samples will start in early November.
The market of cellular phones with cameras has been expanding domestically as well as overseas along with increasingly pixilated cameras. In response to this as well as a trend towards greater number of functions in cellular phones, Mitsubishi Electric fully utilized the module technology and know how gained from our module development to date to achieve the industry's first 4 mega-pixel CCD camera module with auto focus.
Main Features of New Product
1. Realization of first 4 mega pixel module in a cellular phone
Small 4 mega-pixel CCD camera module developed by full use of an advanced optical design and mounting technology.
2. Realization of high sensitivity and high definition using Super CCD
This module can fully respond to photography in low lighting and dark places by utilizing Super CCD.
3. Equipped with AF (Auto focus) function for precise photography
With AF function, photography of any type of photographic subject is possible; from close up human subjects to scenery.
4. Customizable FPC(b) and connector
The FPC and connector are customizable to the needs of the customer.
5. Corresponds to the frame rate of 30 fps (max) in VGA(c) size
Can respond to 30 fps (max) frame rate in VGA size picture output, making television quality animation possible
