Stacked sensor architecture

Sony Semiconductor Solutions explains that its stacked CMOS image-sensor structure separates the pixel section and logic circuit section onto different substrate layers, the architecture associated with its Exmor RS family (Sony stacked structure).

High-speed imaging evolution

Sony Semiconductor Solutions describes stacked image sensors as enabling compact designs with higher-speed readout and added processing functionality as the technology evolved (Sony stacked image sensor evolution).

2-Layer Transistor Pixel stacked CMOS (company news)

On December 16, 2021 Sony Semiconductor Solutions announced what it called the world's first stacked CMOS image sensor technology with a 2-Layer Transistor Pixel, separating photodiodes and pixel transistors onto different substrate layers to approximately double saturation signal level versus conventional designs (Sony Semicon).

Exmor RS stacked architecture framing (company product index)

Sony Semiconductor Solutions' consumer camera image-sensor pages describe Exmor RS as its stacked CMOS image sensor brand that layers back-illuminated pixels atop a logic chip for higher speed and compact form factors (Sony Semicon).
