CMOS Image Sensor Technology

UMC's enhanced CMOS image sensor process is based on our generic mixed-mode process. The unique proprietary technology addresses the needs of today's most sophisticated camera-on-a-chip designers that produce chips for high-end, still life and video digital cameras, and scanners. Because of its lower than average dark current level, UMC's sensor process allows image sensors designed in its process to detect light at lower light conditions. The result is image quality that is superior to any other foundry CMOS technology. UMC's CMOS image sensor process is available from 0.5um down to 0.18um technologies to power customer designs ranging from VGA applications to megabit resolution products.
