Implementing the latest trends such as multi-camera and full-screen

The trend in the latest mobile devices is full-screen displays that fill the entire front and multi-camera systems equipped with multiple cameras. Accordingly, the importance of ultra-small pixels capable of implementing high resolution in a small chip size is growing.

Samsung Electronics unveiled new ultra-high-resolution image sensors, the 'ISOCELL Bright GW1 (64 million pixels)' and 'ISOCELL Bright GM2 (48 million pixels),' featuring 0.8㎛ (micrometer) ultra-small pixels, on the 9th.

With the launch of this product, Samsung Electronics has expanded its 0.8㎛ pixel image sensor lineup from 20 megapixels to 32 megapixels, 48 megapixels, and 64 megapixels.

The 64-megapixel GW1 is the highest pixel product among mobile image sensors in the industry, and the 48-megapixel GM2 is small in size and has a wide range of applications.

Both products enhance color reproduction with 'ISOCELL Plus' technology, which reduces light loss, and also feature 'Tetracell' technology, which increases sensitivity fourfold by making four pixels function as one, enabling bright image capture even in dark environments. When driving Tetracell, the output pixels are 16 million pixels for GW1 and 12 million pixels for GM2.

In addition, both products are equipped with a 'DCG (Dual Conversion Gain)' function that enhances color reproduction and minimizes noise, enabling clear photos to be taken even in environments with too much or too little light.

With 'Super PD (Phase Detection)' technology, a phase-detection autofocus technology, it can capture fast and clear images in various shooting environments and provides Full HD slow motion functions of 480 frames per second (GW1) and 240 frames per second (GM2), respectively.

In particular, the GW1 also supports 'real-time HDR (High Dynamic Range)' functionality, enabling rich colors even in environments with high contrast, such as dark interiors or backlighting.

"In recent years, smartphone cameras have replaced traditional compact cameras and become a key tool for vividly recording and sharing our daily lives," said Park Yong-in, Vice President of the Sensor Business Team at Samsung Electronics' S.LSI Division. "Samsung's ISOCELL Bright GW1 and GM2 will provide a new shooting experience with their many pixels and groundbreaking technology."

GW1 and GM2 are scheduled for mass production in the second half of this year.
