INTRODUCTION

S5K437CX is a highly integrated single chip CMOS image sensor developed by SAMSUNG with the 0.35

µm

CMOS image sensor process technology. It is designed to implement high-efficient and low-power photo sensor

in the imaging application. The sensor has 640 x 480 effective pixels with 1/4 inch optical format. The sensor

digitizes the pixel output with the on-chip 10-bit ADC blocks and drastically Fixed Pattern Noise (FPN) with the on-

chip CDS. With the interface signals and 10-bit raw data directly connected to the external devices, you can easily

set up the camera system. S5K437CX is suitable for low power camera module with 2.8V power supply.
