The OV7950 is a highly integrated CMOS video camera
that packs a high level of functionality. It is the new
generation of advanced CMOS image sensors developed
specifically for automotive applications, performing
exceptionally well in low light conditions (<0.01 lux) and
in a wide temperature range from -40° to 105°C.
At only 1/4-inch square and using only one 3.3 volt
DC power supply, the OV7950 color sensor is ideal
for applications requiring a small footprint, low power
consumption, high-performance video camera. The
OV7950 supports NTSC composite video output and
can directly interface with an in-car LCD screen or other
device with 75 Ohm loading.
Key features of the OV7950 include a new windowing
feature which allows customers to adjust their camera
setup by moving the sensitive area of the camera in
either vertical or horizontal directions. This feature is
especially useful in fine tuning the viewing window and
angle of fixed position cameras, for example cameras
mounted in places where there is a chance of obstructed
view such as car bumpers.
The OV7950 image sensor is particularly well suited to
automotive applications because it features a dual
static overlay function allowing for both a dynamic and a
static visual aid layer (text or graphics) within the image.
This is especially useful for reference frames and guiding
systems in backup and parking assist cameras for cars
and trucks.
The OV7950 has completed all required AEC-Q100
Grade 2 qualifications.
