Omnivision is sampling a square 2MP (1500×1500) resolution CMOS image sensor for gastrointestinal, ENT, orthopedic, surgical, dental, and veterinarian reusable and disposable endoscopes, catheters, and guide wires.
The OH02B imager is available in the smallest form factor 2.5×2.5mm CameraCubeChip package (OCH2B) for disposable designs.
It features AntLinx proprietary technology, which provides the thinnest 4-metre interface connection directly from the endoscope camera to the camera control unit (CCU) tower.
“The medical industry is moving to single-use endoscopes to minimize cross-contamination and improve patient safety. CCD-based image sensors cannot meet today’s high-performance endoscope requirements and are being phased out,” said Omnivision’s Richard Yang.
The AntLinx digital interface connects the OH02B/OCH2B from the endoscope camera to the CCU tower.
It features only four thin micro-coaxial cables that reach 4 meters long. It is not affected by noise or electromagnetic interference and has minimal electromagnetic conduction.
AntLinx delivers superior video quality and reduces interface conversion requirements, even for long-reach applications like gastrointestinal endoscopy.
The OH02B image sensor is built on PureCel®Plus-S stacked-die technology.
It is available in the OCH2B CameraCubeChip package that features a small 2.5×2.5mm size for disposable endoscope designs.nivision
Omnivision is ISO13485 certified and medical products are EMC and EMI tested, which helps to streamline the medical device OEM’s FDA approval process.
The OCH2B is also biocompatible and waterproof, and the OH02B is autoclavable. It does not require tuning or calibration.
Samples of the OH02B imager and OCH2B camera are available.
