High-Speed Line-Scan Sensors Improve Spectroscopy
CMOS linear arrays allow the optical signal to be digitized directly on the chip, making the electronics design simpler, more cost-efficient and more robust. CMOS image sensors were attractive initially because of their lower overall system costs, thanks to their higher integration level and the industry’s ability to place more and smaller pixels on a standard-size chip. Recently, the image quality of pixels produced by the latest-generation CMOS image sensor technologies has helped
