OMNIVISION announced its latest-generation automotive image sensor: the OX08D20, 8-megapixel (MP) CMOS image sensor with TheiaCel technology.

This new device is an upgrade to the popular OX08D10 sensor for exterior cameras used in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD). The device will be introduced at AutoSens Europe.

“OMNIVISION’s OX08D10 image sensor with TheiaCel technology was launched at AutoSens Brussels in 2023 and has been a highly successful product for automotive OEMs seeking a single device that integrates all of the most important image sensor features, including best-in-class low-light performance, LED flicker mitigation, compact size, superior image quality at high temperatures, and low power,” said Dr. Paul Wu, director of automotive product marketing, OMNIVISION. “Our mission is to partner with our customers to solve their toughest challenges. That’s why our latest-generation devices are designed with innovative features our customers need.”

The OX08D20 features all of the benefits of the OX08D10, as well as:

• An innovative capture scheme developed in collaboration with Mobileye that significantly reduces the motion blur of nearby objects (while driving) and improves low-light performance
• An upgrade to 60 frames per second (fps) to enable dual-use cameras
• Updated cybersecurity to match the latest industry standard, MIPI CSE 2.0

In addition to industry-leading low-light performance, the device has low power consumption and comes in an a-CSP package that is 50% smaller than other exterior sensors in its class.

OMNIVISION launched the latest addition to its popular Nyxel near-infrared (NIR) technology family: the new OX05C—the automotive industry’s first and only 5-megapixel (MP) back-side illuminated (BSI) global shutter (GS) high dynamic range (HDR) sensor for in-cabin driver and occupant monitoring systems (DMS and OMS). The OX05C’s exceptional capabilities will be demonstrated at AutoSens Europe.

The OX05C GS HDR sensor delivers extremely clear images of the entire cabin, enabling improved algorithm accuracy even in challenging high-brightness lighting conditions. It features a pixel size of just 2.2µm and OMNIVISION’s revolutionary Nyxel NIR technology, which achieves the world’s class-leading quantum efficiency (QE) at the 940nm NIR wavelength to further improve DMS and OMS capabilities in low-light conditions. The OX05C has on-chip RGB-IR separation, relieving the burden of a dedicated image signal processor (ISP) and backend processing, thus freeing extra bandwidth for other tasks.

At just 6.61mm x 5.34mm, the OX05C1S package is 30% smaller than its predecessor, the OX05B (7.94mm x 6.34mm), providing automotive OEMs with greater design flexibility to place the camera in various locations within the cabin. Moreover, OEMs can use the same camera lens when upgrading from the OX05B to the newer OX05C, providing a design and cost advantage.

“We have applied OMNIVISION’s unparalleled HDR technology and top-notch RGB-IR processing algorithm for security cameras to the automotive market. This is a significant step forward in the advancement of DMS and OMS cameras,” said Dr. Paul Wu, Director of automotive product marketing at OMNIVISION. “Our OX05C sensor has industry-leading perception performance. Even in bright light conditions, the driver’s face is not washed out, and the camera can detect distractions or drowsiness.” Added Wu, “DMS cameras are a critical safety component for ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems), which is why OMNIVISION strives to continually improve them.”

“Global shutter combined with HDR and Nyxel NIR sensitivity makes the OX05C a real step forward for in-cabin imaging,” said Detlef Wilke, Vice President Innovations & Strategic Partnerships at Smart Eye. “It gives our algorithms the consistency they need to track driver attention and occupant status in everything from bright sunlight to near darkness, while the smaller form factor offers OEMs more flexibility in camera placement.”

Compared to rolling-shutter HDR sensors, the GS HDR OX05C avoids interference from other IR light sources in the cabin, greatly improving the RGB image quality and providing flexibility to enable more capture scheme and functions in real applications. The OX05C features integrated cybersecurity and supports simultaneous driver and occupant monitoring with a single camera, reducing complexity, cost and space. In addition, OMNIVISION developed the sensor with strong ecosystem partner support to provide a complete, seamless solution for automotive OEMs.

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced that it has successfully delivered on the ambitious expansion of its inductor and frequency control device (FCD) product lines announced in September 2024, significantly increasing the breadth and availability of components now in the field. The company has released more than 2000 new SKUs across nearly 100 series across inductors and frequency control devices, with continued rollouts underway in 2025.

The expanded offering simplifies sourcing for Vishay customers and supports more applications through broader inductance and voltage ranges, improved noise suppression, and additional size variations to fit even the smallest PCB footprints. Recent launches include new wireless charging inductors, common-mode chokes, high current ferrite impedance beads, and TLVR inductors, as well as nearly 15 new FCD products.

“This expansion was designed to deliver on our commitment to give customers maximum design flexibility, and the market response has confirmed that we’ve hit the mark,” said Mike Husman, Senior Vice President, Inductor Division, at Vishay. “We’re now seeing the impact of this expansion in the field — thousands of new SKUs, strong uptake through distribution, and a clear signal from our customers that they value the depth and readiness of our offering.”

To support this growth, Vishay continues to invest in global production capacity, including expansions in Asia, Mexico and the Dominican Republic. In response to the industry’s increasing demand for diversified manufacturing locations — and part of Vishay’s strategy of vertically integrated, resilient manufacturing — flagship Vishay-produced IHLP power inductors are now shipping from the company’s La Laguna plant in Gómez Palacio, Durango.

The momentum continues in 2025, with more product series set to launch in the coming months. In total, the company expects to exceed 3000 new SKUs across inductors and frequency control devices from its overall expansion effort, supporting increased design-in activity across industrial, telecom, and consumer applications.

I wanted to share a common issue with the LM358 that might help others troubleshooting similar problems. The Problem (Left Circuit) Built a simple non-inverting amplifier (gain ≈ 4.9) using an LM358 with ±9V rails. The output showed significant crossover distortion around zero-crossing - you can see the characteristic "flattening" in the waveform. Root Cause The LM358 uses an NPN output stage that pulls high well but relies on an internal current source to pull low. When driving high-impedance loads (like a scope probe directly), there's insufficient sink current to rapidly transition through zero, creating a dead zone. A Solution (Right Circuit) Adding a 1kΩ pull-down resistor (RL) from output to the negative rail (-9V) completely fixed it: Provides a continuous current path to the negative supply Enables smooth zero-crossing transitions Result: much cleaner waveform with minimal distortion Key Takeaways LM358/LM324 require careful output loading considerations in bipolar configurations Pull-down resistor to negative rail (typically 1kΩ-10kΩ) enables proper operation This is in the datasheets but easily overlooked in practice For true rail-to-rail with minimal distortion, consider CMOS op-amps (TLV274, MCP6004, etc.) Hope this helps someone debugging similar issues! The LM358 is a low cost and accessible op-amp great for general or educational/hobby use, but understanding its output stage limitations is key for clean signals. This came up while documenting some lab exercises, and I thought it was worth sharing since it's such a common gotcha. submitted by /u/eimtechnology [link] [comments]
