OmniVision's OV6948 is one of the world's smallest
commercial image sensors. Initially developed for small-
outer-diameter medical endoscopes and catheters, the
OV6948 can be designed into a wide range of
applications, including dental, veterinary, internet-of-
things (IoT), industrial, wearable and forensic devices.
The OV6948 leverages OmniVision's proven OmniBSI+™
pixel technology to deliver best-in-class image quality
and low-light performance in a package that measures
just 575 µm x 575 µm.
The OV6948 has an 1/36-inch optical format and an
image array capable of capturing 200 x 200 resolution
video at up to 30 frames per second (fps).
It offers exceptional low-light sensitivity of
1000 mV/lux-sec, and using OmniVision's proprietary
sensor technology, delivers excellent image quality in
terms of color fidelity, sharpness and low noise.
Due to the sensor's low power consumption, less heat is
generated at the distal tip of the endoscope, improving
patient comfort and thus permitting longer-duration
procedures. The sensor enables easy integration, with a
4-pin interface and analog data output, capable of data
transmission of up to 4 meters with minimal signal noise.
