Confirmed: Sony FX5 has 16,6MP stacked sensor

I got some Sony FX5 brochure images I cannot share yet (Thanks to the source!). On the brochure you can see an image of the sensor with the following official text:

16.6 MP full-frame back-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor with both wide latitude and high-speed readout.

About the Processor Sony writes:

Bionz XR2 processor with integrated AI unit dramatically enhances performance in image quality, audio quality, recognition, connectivity, and operability.

And this is what they write about Open Gate:
