Sony icx453, icx483, icx493, imx021, imx038 datasheets

[pisolone]

Hi,
I'm starting a new project but I can't find on the web any datasheet for the following components:

1) SONY ICX453AQ
2) SONY ICX483AQA
3) SONY ICX493AQA
4) SONY IMX021
5) SONY IMX038

Is there anybody willing to share or sell any of them?
Thanks a lot,

Andrea

hi

Have you tried the SONY Corporation.???

Sony Global - Search Results for datasheets

Yes, I tried with SONY website but there's no datasheet available for those components
Thanks,

Andrea

Why are you using Sony IC's anyway?, they are obscure and difficult to find data on - and presumably difficult to source?.

These parts are big (APS format) CCD and CMOS sensors: Sony is the only supplier for these kind of objects. Kodak is an alternative but their prices are higher.
Thanks,

Andrea

Can't you get the datasheets from where you get the chips?.

I had the same idea, but all the supplier I've contacted up to now can provide the parts but not the datasheet.
Thanks,

Andrea
