onsemi AR0235 · 2.3MP 1/2.7" global-shutter CMOS image sensor
AR0235 Sensor Specifications & Compatible M12 and C-Mount Lenses
AR0235 is an onsemi 1/2.7" global-shutter CMOS image sensor from the Hyperlux SG family, suited to high-speed ADAS and motion-critical capture. It resolves 1920x1200 (2.3 MP) on 3 um pixels across a 6.79mm diagonal at up to 120 fps over MIPI CSI-2 or parallel, in color or mono. Commonlands matches M12 Lenses to its 6.79mm image circle and calculates the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view for each option.

Compatible Commonlands Lenses for the AR0235 with Calculated Field of View
Each field of view below is calculated for the AR0235 active area (5.76 × 3.6 mm) from Commonlands’ per-lens field-of-view data, which reflects each lens’s real distortion rather than a focal-length-only estimate. Alongside the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view, each row lists the lens aperture (F#), distortion, ingress protection, total track length (TTL), and rated resolution, so you can shortlist on optics and mechanics in one pass. Coverage shows whether the lens image circle covers the 6.79 mm sensor diagonal. Only lenses that cover the full diagonal are listed. Run exact working-distance and object-size numbers through the field of view calculator.
Engineering picks for the AR0235
- Best ~30° HFoV: Telephoto 10.4mm M12 Lens (CIL104) (10.4 mm, f/3.8). Why: the closest covering option to 30° horizontal, chosen for tight inspection framing and long read ranges. Field of view on the AR0235: 31° H × 20° V (36° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best ~60° HFoV: Wide-Angle 5.8mm M12 Lens (CIL358) (5.8 mm, f/1.9). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the AR0235: 59° H × 36° V (70° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best ~120° HFoV: Low Distortion 1.8mm M12 Lens (CIL018) (1.8 mm, f/2.8). Why: the closest covering option to 120° horizontal, chosen for wide navigation and room-scale coverage. Field of view on the AR0235: 121° H × 92° V (130° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Lowest distortion: Low Distortion 4.4mm M12 Lens (CIL043) (4.4 mm, f/3.2). Why: measured -0.5% TV distortion, the flattest image among covering lenses. Field of view on the AR0235: 67° H × 45° V (76° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best low light: 8mm C-Mount Lens (CIL521) (8 mm, f/1.5). Why: the fastest covering aperture (f/1.5), which collects the most light per pixel. Field of view on the AR0235: 40° H × 25° V (46° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
Find a lens for the AR0235 in the M12 Lens collection or the C-Mount Lens collection. The covering options below run from 0.8 mm to 100 mm focal length and span 3° to 195° horizontal field of view on the AR0235 active area.
Covers in the table means the lens image circle is at least as large as the 6.79 mm sensor diagonal, so the corners are not cropped. Need a focal length or coverage that is not listed here? Ask our engineers to confirm a match.
How to choose a lens for the AR0235
Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the AR0235. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 6.79 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 2.3 MP or higher so it resolves the 3.0 µm pixels. For exact working-distance and object-size numbers, run the figures through the Commonlands field of view calculator.
