CMOS Sensors

By W. Aiman Mueller Complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor sensors, or CMOS image sensors, are one of several devises that turn an actual light image into a virtual electronic image for video imaging and recording purposes. A similar device is the charge-coupled device, or CCD sensor; often part of cameras, it runs on a higher voltage than its CMOS counterpart. Also, CMOS image sensors tend to be simpler than CCD image sensors.A CMOS linear image ... Read more
