Canon developed the largest in the world CMOS - complementary metal oxide semiconductor sensor with the superhigh photosensitivity

The Japanese company Of canon reported the development of the largest in the world CMOS - complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) of the sensor with the sizes of 202 X of 205 mm. producer notes that because of its large sizes, the new sensor enlarges the range of photosensitivity because of the higher concentration of the luminous flux. This sensor, from the words of company, will find its use in the professional specular cameras, for example, during the photographing of night sky and the night observation of animals.

Producer especially emphasizes that its new sensor, in spite of its large sizes (earlier, an increase with the size of sensors it compulsorily conducted also to an increase in the time, spent on processing of signals), it possesses high productivity, because of the firm circuit design, used with the development of sensor.
