Sony put a slew of new CCD announcements in its recent CX-News magazine. First is a 6db sensitivity improvement of its Super HAD CCDs for security applications. It's achieved by increasing the aperture size and improving the form and height of the microlenses, improved color filters ("complementary color pigment materials") and increased FF.
The new 10MP ICX665/675 Series CCD feature 1.68um pixel, while 9MP ICX637CQZ has 1.66um pixel. The small pixel size is said to be achieved due to finer process features and single level interconnect which reduces the optical stack hight.
13.7MP ICX652CQZ CCD is based on 1.75um pixel and has 2x2 pixel binning. With binning enabled the effective pixel size approaches 3.5um at 3.4MP resolution.
