Compounding this challenge, much of a CCD sensor's functionality and performance depend wholly on another component: the timing generator, which produces a variety of clock pulses. The pulses drive ...

The CCD sensor at the heart of imaging systems needs careful signal conditioning to achieve maximum performance. The center of virtually any electronic-imaging system is its light sensor, the ...

100MHz (50MHz x 2ch) data rate, CCD linear image sensor Built-in Timing Generator circuit and CCD driver, facilitating system development Low power consumption: 10V power supply voltage for amplifier ...

CCD technology was the driving force behind early digital photography, and its popularity persisted until the late 2000s.

Forty years after they first sketched out the idea for a digital image sensor, two former Bell Labs research scientists have been jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2009 "for the invention ...

Improved design and fabrication methods teamed up with high-speed processors are spawning low-cost, high-performance CMOS and CCD imagers across a wide range of applications.

Wait, excuse us, did we say 8 megapixels? We meant to say 10. That's right, megapixel excess moves onward and upward as Sharp has unveiled a new 10 megapixel CCD for consumer cameras.

A type of CCD sensor from Fujifilm that is used in its digital cameras. Super CCD uses a honeycomb structure of octagon-shaped light sensors (photodiodes) at 45 degree angles rather than 90 ...

This year’s Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded, with the inventors of the CCD getting recognition for the invention which enabled modern digital photography. It has taken a while: Whilst ...

A CCD sensor with electronic shutter is capable of imaging at variable integration time [4]. However, the integration time is constant for all pixels and individual variation is not possible.
