International Conference on Optoelectronics and Microelectronics Technology and Application to be held on Nov. 12-14 in Tianjin, China, has an interesting paper by Qinghong Cao, Rockchip Electronics Co., China "A High Sensitivity CMOS Image Sensor Design with Complementary CFA and CCD Compatible Interface." Rockchip is one of the biggest application processors vendors in China, recently entered into a strategic alliance with Intel. The paper might be an early indication that the company is entering the image sensor market.
Update: It appears that Qinghong Cao, the author of the paper, used to work for Brigates, and possibly presents his former work on MCCD.
