Description
The ICX414AL is a diagonal 8mm (Type 1/2) interline CCD solid-state image sensor with a square pixel array suitable for EIA black-and-white cameras. Progressive scan allows all pixels signals to be output independently within approximately 1/60 second. This chip features an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time which makes it possible to realize full-frame still images without a mechanical shutter. Square pixel makes this device suitable for image input and processing applications. High sensitivity and low dark current are achieved through the adoption of the HAD (Hole-Accumulation Diode) sensors.
This chip is suitable for applications such as FA and surveillance cameras.
