Samsung’s ISOCELL HP2 has entered mass production.
The 200-megapixel sensor uses 0.6 micrometer pixels and is similar in size to that of 108MP smartphone cameras, offering high resolution without a larger camera bump.
Samsung on Tuesday introduced its latest 200-megapixel image sensor – ISOCELL HP2, with improved pixel technology and full capacity for high-resolution image experience in premium smartphones.
The company said the new image sensor has entered mass production.
“The Samsung ISOCELL HP2 leverages Samsung’s high-resolution image sensor technologies and know-how in epic detail,” said JoonSeo Yim, executive vice president of Sensor Business at Samsung Electronics, in a statement.
“Our leadership stems from innovative pixel technologies that allow our sensors to go beyond the number and size of pixels,” he added.
Samsung’s new 200-megapixel image sensor will increase capacity for maximum pixel performance, enabling detailed and seamless photos in all lighting conditions, the company said.
The 200 megapixel image sensor contains 200 million 0.6 micrometer pixels, a sensor size commonly used in 108 MP main cameras of smartphones, allowing consumers to enjoy even higher resolutions in the latest high-end smartphones without bigger camera bumps in their devices.
With Samsung’s new Dual Vertical Transfer Gate technology, faded photos from brightly lit environments can be significantly reduced with the new image sensor, the company said.
In addition, for excellent HDR performance, the company also introduces the DSG function in 50MP mode for the first time, which applies two separate conversion values to the analog signal received at the pixel level.
