Diagonal 11mm (Type 2/3) CCD Image Sensor for CCIR B/W Video Cameras
Description
The ICX423AL is an interline CCD solid-state image
sensor suitable for CCIR B/W video cameras with a
diagonal 11mm (Type 2/3) system. Compared with the
current product ICX083AL, basic characteristics such
as sensitivity and smear are improved drastically and
high saturation characteristics are realized.
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
ICX083AL and has the same drive conditions.
Features
• High sensitivity (+3.0dB compared with the ICX083AL)
• Low smear (–10.0dB compared with the ICX083AL)
• High saturation signal (+2.0dB compared with the ICX083AL)
• High resolution and Low dark current
• Excellent antiblooming characteristics
• Continuous variable-speed shutter
