OV105B

OV105B is a CMOS image sensor manufactured by OmniVision Technologies. It is part of the OV105x family of compact sensors designed for use in embedded imaging and small-form-factor cameras. The sensor integrates a pixel array with a color filter and basic on-chip image processing, delivering a digital video output suitable for camera modules and embedded systems.

The OV105B is designed for low power consumption and a small physical footprint, making it suitable for applications where space and energy efficiency are important. Like many CMOS sensors, it typically employs a rolling shutter readout and supports programmable exposure and gain control, as well as basic white balance and other image-adjustment features. The exact capabilities—such as resolution, frame rate, and supported output interfaces—vary by revision and specific module implementation.

Interfaces and data formats associated with OV105B variants commonly include parallel digital outputs and, in some configurations, high-speed serial interfaces used by camera modules. The sensor is used in a range of applications, including embedded vision systems, webcams, toy and educational cameras, robotics, and other devices requiring compact, low-cost image capture.

Notes on the OV105B emphasize that specifications are revision-dependent and can differ between production variants. For precise electrical characteristics, timing, and supported outputs, consult the respective product data sheet or module documentation from OmniVision or their authorized distributors. Variants in the OV105x family have progressed to offer higher performance, but OV105B remains recognized as a small, low-power option in its class.
