6mm Automotive M12 Lens : For up to 3MP sensors with 3um pixels such as AR0234, IMX290, IMX291

The CIL061 is a 6.0mm M12 lens for 1/2.5" sensors up to 3MP at 3μm pixel pitch. At F/1.9 it gives you 66° across a 7.0mm image circle, which is a practical match for the ON Semiconductor AR0234 and Sony IMX290/IMX291 in ADAS and embedded vision.

Distortion is -8% rectilinear and -5% TV. That level is usually fine for surround-view ADAS, general machine vision, and object detection, where some barrel distortion is acceptable or corrected in software. The 5g weight also helps when the housing is small and every millimeter counts. Check angular coverage the field of view calculator.

The optics use all-glass elements in an aluminum barrel. The athermalized design holds focus across -30°C to 75°C, so the image stays stable through the temperature range that usually shifts plastic-element lenses. The BBAR coating on the first surface reduces ghosting and flare when you shoot through a window or into backlit scenes.

Two mechanical variants ship. M12A fits standard mounts, and M12B adds IP69K sealing for washdown, agricultural, and harsh outdoor environments. Both variants accept optional 650nm IR cut filters. The lens is mechanically compatible with Commonlands CLA019 lens holders, FLIR Blackfly S, Allied Vision Alvium, iDS uEye LE, The Imaging Source, and D3 Engineering camera modules.
