ICX405AL

Diagonal 6mm (Type 1/3) CCD Image Sensor for CCIR B/W Video Cameras

Description

The ICX405AL is an interline CCD solid-state

image sensor suitable for CCIR B/W video cameras

with a diagonal 6mm (Type 1/3) system. Compared

with the conventional product ICX055BL, basic

characteristics such as sensitivity, smear, dynamic

range and S/N are improved drastically.

This chip features a field period readout system and

an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage

time.

This chip is suitable for applications such as surveillance

cameras, automotive cameras, etc.

Features

• High sensitivity (+4dB compared with the ICX055BL)

• Low smear (–20dB compared with the ICX055BL)

• High D range (+3dB compared with the ICX055BL)

• High S/N

• Low dark current

• Excellent antiblooming characteristics

• Continuous variable-speed shutter

• No voltage adjustment

(Reset gate and substrate bias are not adjusted.)

• Reset gate:

5V drive

• Horizontal register: 5V drive
