Micron Technology has started making in volume the 8-megapixel image sensor that it announced last May as a prototype.
The image sensor is fabricated in a standard 0.13-micron CMOS process and is built using a 1.75-micron pixel design that fits into a 1/2.5-inch optical format.
Targeted at digital still cameras for now and in future for mobile phones, the image sensor is capable of bursting more than 10 pictures a second at full resolution and more than 30 pictures a second at 2-megapixel resolution.
The device also enables a digital camera to capture and playback HD video, which equates to shooting video at 30 frames per second (fps) in 720p (progressive) format.
