With a packaged footprint of only 1.8 x 1.8 mm, the
OV6930 is the ideal solution for camera applications
that require less than a 2.8 mm outside diameter, such as
medical endoscopes. The OV6930's unique architecture
combines ultra-low power consumption with
OmniVision's best-in-class pixel technology,
OmniPixel3-HS™, enabling low-light performance of
3300 mV/(Lux-second).
In addition to its small footprint and extraordinary
performance, the OV6930 offers raw serial output,
allowing cabling up to 14 feet with two wires.
The low-voltage OV6930 provides either full-frame or
cropped analog images in RAW RGB format via serial
camera control bus (SCCB) interface control.

OV6930
industry's smallest HVGA image sensor
The device offers an image array capable of operating up
to 30 frames per second (fps) in 400 x 400 HVGA or
60fps in 400 x 200 resolution, with simplified exposure
control programmable through the SCCB interface.
OmniVision's image sensors leverage proprietary
technology to improve image quality by reducing or
eliminating common lighting/electrical sources of image
contamination, such as fixed pattern noise and smearing,
to produce a clean, fully stable, color image.
No other image sensor on the market offers
high performance and sensitivity in such a small form
factor.
