The ICX044 is a 0.25-megapixel YMCG image sensor manufactured by Sony. It delivers a 510 × 492 pixel array with a 9.6 µm pixel pitch, providing efficient photon collection at each photosite. The optical format spans a 6.131 mm diagonal with a 272:205 aspect ratio, characteristic of 1/3-inch sensors widely used in embedded and surveillance systems. With 9.6 µm pixels, the sensor features mid-range pixel pitch balancing sensitivity and resolution for industrial inspection and machine vision.
