OV7959 NTSC/PAL product brief lead free available in a lead-free package High-Performance, Cost Effective Video Capture for Surveillance Applications The OV7959 is a high-performance and cost effective CMOS image sensor developed specifically for surveillance applications. Based on OmniVision's advanced OmniPixel3-HSTM technology, the OV7959 achieves optimum low-light sensitivity and power efficiency, making it an excellent solution for video capture in varying conditions. Advanced image processing functions, including gain control, white balance, and aperture and defective pixel correction are all programmable through the serial camera control bus (SCCB) interface. Other key features of the OV7959 are the 16-zone automatic exposure control, horizontal and vertical windowing capability and extremely low dark current. The 1/3.6-inch image sensor supports both NTSC and PAL output formats. The OV7959 is capable of operating in extreme low-light conditions and is capable of operating across a wide temperature range of -20C to 70C. It has superior IR performance and utilizes very low power. It also supports a built-in OSD function. Find out more at www.ovt.com.
