Siliconfile Develops 1.75um Pixel

ECN Asia Magazine presents some details of Siliconfile's newly developed 1.75um pixel:

"The fill factor of SiliconFile’s ¼-inch 3M CISs no longer has the plain-old 4T architecture, and has increased from 30 to 60 percent through the propriety shared pixel of the company. Sensitivity degradation, which occurs in smaller pixels, has dramatically improved."

"The company further notes, that as makers shrink the pixel size of their CIS products, enhancing resolution using low light has become a major concern. Hence, makers, most large companies, have developed a technology for processing less than 90nm."

With that advanced pixel technology it's no wonder that Siliconfile takes quite a remarkable market share of 7.5%:
