>Sony Develops World's First*1 Stacked CMOS Image Sensor Technology with 2-Layer Transistor Pixel
>Widens Dynamic Range and Reduces Noise by Approximately Doubling*2 Saturation Signal Level*3
>Whereas conventional CMOS image sensors’ photodiodes and pixel transistors occupy the same substrate, Sony’s new technology separates photodiodes and pixel transistors on different substrate layers. This new architecture approximately doubles*2 saturation signal level*3 relative to conventional image sensors, widens dynamic range and reduces noise, thereby substantially improving imaging properties. The new technology’s pixel structure will enable pixels to maintain or improve their existing properties at not only current but also smaller pixel sizes.
>Sony announced this breakthrough at the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting that started on Saturday, December 11, 2021.
More surface area for photosites than ever before.
As per usual.
1 inch and smartphones will get 1st dip of the new tech.
Then FF will get the tech.
Then 3rd party FF.
Then others.
