With the rapid advancement of Industry 4.0, machine vision, intelligent transportation, and high-end security systems, distortion-free high-speed imaging has become a core necessity. Leveraging its proprietary Pregius™/Pregius S™ global shutter technology, Sony Semiconductor Solutions has developed industry-leading global shutter CMOS image sensors that completely eliminate the motion blur and distortion typically associated with capturing fast-moving objects using traditional rolling shutter technology. Shenzhen Mingjiada Electronics Co., Ltd. specializes in supplying Sony’s full range of global shutter image sensors, offering genuine products, in-stock inventory, and efficient supply chain services to help customers rapidly implement high-end vision application solutions.
I. Core Technologies of Sony Global Shutter Image Sensors: Pregius and Pregius S
Sony’s global shutter technology is centered on two core technologies: **Pregius™ (front-illuminated) and Pregius S™ (back-illuminated stacked)**, setting the industry standard for high image quality, high frame rates, and low noise.
Pregius™ Technology: Utilizes an active-pixel CMOS design with a low-noise CCD structure, retaining the low-noise advantages of CCDs while enabling high-speed global shutter readout. It is suitable for industrial scenarios with stringent requirements for image quality and stability.
Pregius S™ Technology: An upgraded back-illuminated + stacked architecture that improves light-gathering efficiency and enhances near-infrared sensitivity, achieving three breakthroughs: miniaturization, high frame rates, and low power consumption. Independent signal processing circuits can integrate features such as AI acceleration and high dynamic range, making it suitable for compact, high-speed industrial cameras.
Core Advantages of Global Shutter: All pixels are exposed and output simultaneously, ensuring no motion blur or distortion when capturing fast-moving objects (such as workpieces on assembly lines, high-speed vehicles, or moving robots), and accurately capturing fine details; paired with Sony’s parallel A/D conversion circuitry, it achieves dual performance benefits of high-speed readout and low-noise imaging.
