Detailed description
The TC246CYM consists of five basic functional blocks: The image-sensing area, the
image–storage area, the serial register, the charge multiplier, and the charge detection
node with buffer amplifier. The location of each of these blocks is identified in the
functional block diagram.
Image-sensing and storage areas
As light enters the silicon in the image-sensing area, electrons are generated and collected
in potential wells of the pixels. Color is accomplished by on-chip color mosaic filter. (see
the sensor topology diagram for a mapping of the color filter) Applying a suitable DC
bias to the antiblooming drain provides blooming protection. The electrons that exceed a
specific level, determined by the ODB bias, are drained away from the pixels. After the
integration cycle is completed by applying a PD-cell readout pulse to IAG2, charge is
transferred from the PD-cell into the V-cell and then quickly transferred into the storage
cell where it waits for readout. 2 lines can be summed together to implement the pseudo-
interlace scan.
