Diagonal 6.64mm (Type 1/2.7) Frame Readout CCD Image Sensor with Square Pixel for Color Cameras

Description

The ICX284AQ is a diagonal 6.64mm (Type 1/2.7)

interline CCD solid-state image sensor with a square

pixel array and 2.02M effective pixels. Frame

readout allows all pixels' signals to be output

independently within approximately 1/7.5 second.

Also, the adoption of high frame rate readout mode

supports 30 frames per second which is four times

the speed in frame readout mode. This chip features

an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage

time. Adoption of a design specially suited for frame

readout ensures a saturation signal level equivalent

to when using field readout. High resolution and high

color reproductivity are achieved through the use of

R, G, B primary color mosaic filters. Further, high

sensitivity and low dark current are achieved through

the adoption of Super HAD CCD technology.

This chip is suitable for applications such as electronic

still cameras, PC input cameras, etc.
