OmniVision Turns Digital Imaging World Upside Down

Clipped to the Drawing Board by Dillon Smatcher

OmniVision Technologies, Inc, the world's largest supplier of CMOS image
sensors, today launched its OmniBSITM architecture, a novel sensor design that
adopts a radically different approach to traditional CMOS image sensor
technology. Using backside illumination (BSI), OmniBSI enables OmniVision to
continue offering improved image quality while extending its pixel roadmap
down to 0.9 micron pixels, which is the key to continued miniaturization of
digital imaging technology. OmniVision developed OmniBSI architecture with the
support of its long-time foundry and process technology partner, Taiwan
Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (TSMC).
