ICX279AK
Diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) CCD Image Sensor for PAL Color Video Cameras
Description
The ICX279AK is an interline CCD solid-state
image sensor suitable for PAL color video cameras
with a diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) system. Compared
with the current product ICX209AK, basic
characteristics such as sensitivity, smear and
dynamic range are improved drastically through the
adoption of EXview HAD CCDTM technology.
This chip features a field period readout system and
an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time.
The package is a 10mm-square 14-pin DIP (Plastic).
EXview HAD CCDTM has different spectral
characteristics from the current CCD.
14 pin DIP (Plastic)
