ST Presents Its CIS Process Roadmap

As Dick James pointed in comments on Sony BSI secrets, ST presented its CIS process roadmap among other things on the analyst's event held on May 15, 2009. The roadmap is shown below:



Just to explain ST CIS processes naming convention: IMG175 process means that the minimum pixel size in this process is 1.75um. This process is also used to make larger pixels, for example 2.2um with improved performance. Similarly, IMG140 process is used for 1.4um pixels and for improved performance 1.75um sensors. IMG110 process is planned to be used with 1.1um and 1.4um pixels.

Many thanks to Dick James for posting the reference to ST roadmap.
