Description
MLX75023 is a fully integrated optical time-of-flight
(TOF) camera sensor. Potential use cases include
gesture recognition, automotive driver monitoring,
surveillance & people counting, robot vision & more.
The sensor features 320 x 240 (QVGA) time-of-flight
pixels based on DepthSense® pixel technology. This
unique design allows up to 120 klux background light
rejection in typical application conditions. The
sensor features high-speed analog signal outputs
which enable a raw frame rate of up to 600 frames
per second. The sensor offers maximum
compatibility with MLX75123, Melexis’ dedicated
TOF companion chip. Combined with a modulated
light source, a system is capable of measuring
distance and reflectivity at full resolution. The
sensor is available in automotive and industrial
grades, both in a small glass BGA wafer level
package form factor which offers many integration
possibilities.
