SAMSUNG CMOS IMAGE SENSOR (14.6M APS-C Size)
The Samsung APS-C size, 14.6M CMOS image sensor
- Fabricated by SAMSUNG 0.13 ? CMOS image sensor
process for GX-20
14.6M
Minimum of light loss by lower Pixel height
SAMSUNG CMOS IMAGE SENSOR
The highest pixel in APS-C class
Efficient in light gathering by small Micro Lens
Gap
5.0 ?
The smallest pixel size in APS-C class
Max. Light accumulation by small Design rule
It incorporates on-chip Correlated Double
Sampling (CDS) circuit to reduce fixed pattern
noise (FPN) programmable gain amplifier (PGA)
to support variable analog gain
0.13 ?
Minimize Design Rule High pixel, small size
More adaptable to large incident light by large
Incident Angle

SAMSUNG CMOS IMAGE SENSOR (14.6M APS-C Size)
More adaptable to large incident light and more
efficient in light gathering!! - Small Micro Lens
Gap enables more efficient in gathering light -
Low Pixel Height gets more light than Higher
Pixel Height - More pixels in same APS-C size by
Small Design Rule
Samsung
A Company
B Company
Empty space that cannot gather the light -
Samsung has the smallest area
Small Micro Lens Gap - More efficient in
gathering light
