CMOS Chip

CMOS chips are often used in digital cameras. Compared with CCD sensors, they offer a cheaper alternative, with lower power consumption and faster data transfer. CMOS sensors are able to transmit data from each point separately, while CCD sensors work line by line. CMOS sensors are sometimes abbreviated as APS (Active-Pixel Sensor).

Characteristics of CMOS sensors

  • Lower energy consumption
  • Higher data processing speed
  • Lower production costs
