Description

The ICX248AK is an interline CCD solid-state image sensor suitable for NTSC color video cameras with a diagonal 8mm (Type 1/2) system. Compared with the current product ICX038DNA, basic characteristics such as sensitivity, smear, dynamic range and S/N are improved drastically through the adoption of EXview HAD CCDTM technology.

This chip features a field period readout system and an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time. This chip is compatible with the pins of the ICX038DNA and has the same drive conditions.

EXview HAD CCDTM has different spectral characteristics from the current CCD.

Features

• High sensitivity (+4.0dB compared with the ICX038DNA)

• Low smear (–6dB compared with the ICX038DNA)

• High D range (+2.0dB compared with the ICX038DNA)

• High S/N

• High resolution and low dark current

• Excellent antiblooming characteristics

• Ye, Cy, Mg, and G complementary color mosaic filters on chip

• Continuous variable-speed shutter

• Substrate bias: Adjustment free (external adjustment also possible with 6 to 14V)

• Reset gate pulse: 5Vp-p adjustment free (drive also possible with 0 to 9V)

• Horizontal register: 5V drive
