ICX423AL

20 pin DIP (Ceramic)

Diagonal 11mm (Type 2/3) CCD Image Sensor for CCIR B/W Video Cameras

Description

The ICX423AL is an interline CCD solid-state image

sensor suitable for CCIR B/W video cameras with a

diagonal 11mm (Type 2/3) system. Compared with the

current product ICX083AL, basic characteristics such

as sensitivity and smear are improved drastically and

high saturation characteristics are realized.

This chip features a field period readout system and

an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage

time. This chip is compatible with the pins of the

ICX083AL and has the same drive conditions.

Features

• High sensitivity (+3.0dB compared with the ICX083AL)

• Low smear (–10.0dB compared with the ICX083AL)

• High saturation signal (+2.0dB compared with the ICX083AL)

• High resolution and Low dark current

• Excellent antiblooming characteristics

• Continuous variable-speed shutter
