Teledyne e2v Rolls Out Affordable, High-Performance Quad Linear CMOS Sensor Family

Teledyne Technologies Inc’s TDY subsidiary Teledyne e2v launched Tetra, a low-cost and high-performance quad linear CMOS sensor family.
The Tetra sensors are ideal for food sorting, recycling, logistics, pick-and-place, document scanning, and other machine vision applications that require cost-effective mono, color, and multispectral imaging.
Tetra provides low read noise and high dynamic range with accurate correlated double sampling (CDS) based on a synchronized shutter design. Each channel has its exposure control helping easy-to-perform white balancing.
The ceramic LCC package also offers high performance and high reliability over a wide range of operating temperatures.
The sensor data ports have high signal integrity and simple interfacing for quick system integration.
Tetra sensors are available in a 2k resolution with a 14 μm x 14 μm pixel size, or 4k resolution with a 7 μm x 7 μm pixel size at a max line rate of 128kHz aggregate.
The mono models can be configured to output one, two, or four rows and the color models provide RGB and mono results.
The sensor also provides spectrally independent RGB and NIR outputs for multispectral imaging using wafer-level coated dichroic filters.
Price action: TDY shares traded lower by 1.45% at $421.11 in the premarket session on the last check Tuesday.
