INTRODUCTION
The S5K433CA and S5K433LA are highly integrated single chip CMOS image sensors fabricated by
SAMSUNG 0.35µm CMOS image sensor process technology. It is developed for imaging application to realize
high-efficiency and low-power photo sensor. The sensor has 640 x 480 effective pixels with 1/4 inch optical
format. The sensor has on-chip 10-bit ADC blocks to digitize the pixel output and also on-chip CDS to reduce
Fixed Pattern Noise (FPN) drastically. With its few interface signals and 10-bit raw data directly connected to the
external devices, a camera system can be configured easily. S5K433CA is suitable for a camera system with
standard 3.3V logic operation and S5K433LA is suitable for low power camera module with 2.8V power supply.
