Usually, when we talk about nanometers it's about the latest chipset. However, a Samsung team at the IEDM 2019 conference presented a technology promising 144MP image sensors based around 14nm FinFET process. The main challenge is that image sensors need to work at a relatively high voltage (2V and up) and all chipset designers aim for the lowest possible voltage (as that reduces power consumption and heat). According to Samsung's researchers, the 14nm FinFET technology will allow for a 42% reduction in power consumption in a 144MP sensor while capturing images at 10fps. For a 12MP...
