Video Processing Applications of High Speed Cmos Image Sensors

An important trend in the design of digital cameras is the integration of capture and processing onto a single CMOS chip. Although integrating the components of a digital camera system onto a single chip significantly reduces system size and power, it does not fully exploit the potential advantages of integration. We argue that a key advantage of integration is the ability to exploit the high s...

The automotive market has been a key driving market segment for the development of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS). This paper provides an historical perspective on MEMS in automotive applications, examples of devices in production, requirements for the applications, infrastructure and specific engineering disciplines that have been developed to address these requirements, and a glimpse ...

CMOS Image Sensors for High Speed Applications

Recent advances in deep submicron CMOS technologies and improved pixel designs have enabled CMOS-based imagers to surpass charge-coupled devices (CCD) imaging technology for mainstream applications. The parallel outputs that CMOS imagers can offer, in addition to complete camera-on-a-chip solutions due to being fabricated in standard CMOS technologies, result in compelling advantages in speed a...

Yield enhancement of piezoresistive pressure sensors for automotive applications

An approach of enhancing yield in the production of piezoresistive pressure sensors for automotive applications is described. The main idea is to introduce an advanced pre-check, which sorts out potentially bad sensors before the actual calibration. The sorting algorithm is performed in two steps. In the first step, the linear correlation coefficient for the pre-checked sensor is calculated and...
