Detailed explanation-1: -CCD sensors consume as much as 100 times more power than an equivalent CMOS sensor. CMOS sensors can be manufactured on most standard silicon production lines, so are inexpensive to produce compared to CCD sensors.
Detailed explanation-2: -CMOS sensors are faster than their CCD counterparts, which allows for higher video frame rates. CMOS imagers provide higher dynamic range and require less current and voltage to operate.
Detailed explanation-3: -CCD (charge coupled device) and CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) image sensors are two different technologies for capturing images digitally. Each has unique strengths and weaknesses giving advantages in different applications.
Detailed explanation-4: -CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) sensors are used to create images in digital cameras, digital video cameras and digital CCTV cameras. CMOS can also be found in astronomical telescopes, scanners and barcode readers.
