477x-CSI

The IMX477 is a stacked back side illuminated Exmor RS CMOS image sensor with a 7.857 mm (type 1/2.3″) optical format and 4056 × 3040 active square pixels at a 1.55µm pitch, giving 12.3-megapixel resolution. It uses an electronic rolling shutter with variable integration time, 10/12-bit ADCs that stream RAW12/10/8 over a 2 or 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 interface running up to 2.1Gb/s per lane. Normal mode delivers the full 4056 x 3040 picture at 60fps in 10-bit format and can stream up to 240fps in 1080 resolution. Auxiliary functions include pixel-binning and V-sub-sampling engines, ambient light and temperature sensors, flash strobe drive, HDR mode, independent image flip/mirror, power save mode and multi camera synchronization. Best suitable for: consumer 4K camcorders and other high speed, multi camera video systems.
