DALSA Semiconductor, an international high performance semiconductor and electronics company, announced today that it has successfully fabricated and delivered the world's highest resolution image sensor chip to its customer, Semiconductor Technology Associates of San Juan Capistrano. The CCD device, which measures approximately four inches by four inches, has a total resolution of over 111 million pixels. It is the world's first imager to break the 100 million pixel barrier..
The device will assist USNO in the determination of the positions and motions of stars, solar system objects and the establishment of celestial reference frames. DALSA Semiconductor manufactured the device for STA at its wafer fabrication facility in Bromont, Quebec.
"As with past custom image sensor projects, I'm very satisfied with the versatility and capability of DALSA Semiconductor's foundry to collaborate on new process enhancements and to manufacture challenging custom CCD image sensor products such as this," said STA President, Richard Bredthauer.
