ICX278AK

ICX278AK Diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) CCD Image Sensor for NTSC Color Video Cameras Description The ICX278AK is an interline CCD solid-state image sensor suitable for NTSC color video cameras with a diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) system. Compared with the current product ICX208AK, basic characteristics such as sensitivity, smear and dynamic range 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. The package is a 10mm-square 14-pin DIP (Plastic). EXview HAD CCD TM has different spectral characteristics from the current CCD. Features High sensitivity (+5dB compared with the ICX208AK) Low smear (–20dB compared with the ICX208AK) High D range (+2dB compared with the ICX208AK) Horizontal register: 3.3 to 5.0V drive Reset gate: 3.3 to 5.0V drive No voltage adjustment (Reset gate and substrate bias are not adjusted.) High resolution, low smear and low dark current Excellent antiblooming characteristics Continuous variable-speed shutter Recommended range of exit pupil distance: –20 to –100mm Ye, Cy, Mg, and G complementary color mosaic filters on chip 14 pin DIP (Plastic) Pin 1 2 V 12 3 Pin 8 H 40 Optical black position (Top View) Device Structure Interline CCD image sensor Image size: Diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) Number of effective pixels: 768 (H) × 494 (V) approx. 380K pixels Total number of pixels: 811 (H) × 508 (V) appr...
