KAF-4320 2084 (H) x 2085 (V) Full Frame CCD Image Sensor Description The KAF−4320 Image Sensor is a high performance monochrome area CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor designed for a wide range of image sensing applications. The sensor incorporates true two-phase CCD technology, simplifying the support circuits required to drive the sensor as well as reducing dark current without compromising charge capacity. The sensor also utilizes the TRUESENSE Transparent Gate Electrode to improve sensitivity compared to the use of a standard front side illuminated polysilicon electrode. The full imaging array is read out of four outputs, each of which is driven by a low impedance two stage source follower that provides a high conversion gain. This combination enables low noise at a net readout rate of 12 MHz (3 MHz per output). Table 1. GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS Parameter www.onsemi.com Figure 1.

Horizontal Seam Cross-Section www.onsemi.com 3 KAF−4320 Image Acquisition floating diffusion. Once the signal has been sampled by the system electronics, the reset gate (fR) is clocked to remove the signal and the floating diffusion is reset to the potential applied by VRD. (See Figure 4). More signal at the floating diffusion reduces the voltage seen at the output pin. In order to activate the output structure, an off-chip load must be added to the VOUT pin of the device such as shown in Figure 6. If charge binning is desired, the charge can be combined at the output node or it can be combined in the fH1L gate and then presented to the output node. An electronic representation of an image is formed when incident photons falling on the sensor plane create electron-hole pairs within the sensor. These photon induced electrons are collected locally by the formation of potential wells at each photogate or pixel site. The number of electrons collected is linearly dependent on light level and exposure time and non-linearly dependent on wavelength. When the pixel’s capacity is reached, excess electrons will leak into the adjacent pixels within the same column. This is termed blooming. During the integration period, the fV1 and fV2 register clocks are held at a constant (low) level. See Figure 17. Dark Reference Pixels There are 4 light shielded pixels at the beginning of each line. There are 4 dark lines at the start of every frame and 4 dark lines at the end of each frame. Since there are outputs at each of the four corners, the light shield will affect the beginning of each line from each output, and for the first four lines from each of the outputs. Under normal circumstances, these pixels do not respond to light. However, dark reference pixels in close proximity to an active pixel can scavenge signal depending on light intensity and wavelength and therefore will not represent the true dark signal. Charge Transport Referring again to Figure 17, the integrated charge from each photogate is transported to the output using a two-step process. Each line (row) of charge is first transported from the vertical CCD to the horizontal CCD register using the fV1 and fV2 register clocks. The horizontal CCD is presented a new line on the falling edge of fV2 while fH1 is held high. The horizontal CCD then transports each line, pixel by pixel, to the output structure by alternately clocking the fH1 and fH2 pins in a complementary fashion. On each falling edge of fH1L a new charge packet is transferred onto a floating diffusion and sensed by the output amplifier. Dummy Pixels Within the horizontal shift register are 4−1/2 leading pixels that are not associated with a column of pixels within the vertical register. These pixels contain only horizontal shift register dark current signal and do not respond to light. A few leading dummy pixels may scavenge false signal depending on operating conditions. Output Structure Charge presented to the floating diffusion is converted into a voltage and current amplified in order to drive off-chip loads. The resulting voltage change seen at the output is linearly related to the amount of charge placed on the H2 H1 H2 HCCD Charge Transfer H1 VDD VOG R VRD Floating Diffusion VOUT VLG Source Follower #1 Figure 4.

The values in the table are in electrons referred to the CCD amplifier input. The CCD amplifier noise floor, the CCD dark current during readout, and other system components such as the analog-digital converter dictate the total system noise. CCD Amplifier The noise contributed by the output amplifier is determined from the amplifier’s noise power spectrum, the system bandwidth, and any other analog processing. Correlated double sampling is a standard analog processing technique used with CCDs and it is assumed that it is used for all of the rest of the calculations and results in this document. Table 6. Frequency CCD Measured Noise CCD + System Datel ADS93x Measured 1.00E+06 12 16.2 3.00E+06 17.3 22.6 Temperature Dependance of the Noise Floor The temperature dependence of the noise floor is dictated primarily by the dark current generated during the readout time for the CCD. Figure 12 and Figure 13 show the expected dynamic range as a function of temperature for two pixel rates, 3 MHz and 1 MHz. The dynamic range was calculated using the measured amplifier and system noise values, the expected dark current performance, and the saturation signal. At 25°C, the dark current shot noise can contribute from 12 to 50 electrons and dominate the noise floor. The maximum dynamic range can be achieved at temperatures < −10°C for these read out frequencies. System Noise The total noise will be the combination of the CCD noise and the noise contributed by other components in the processing circuitry. The total noise, dominated by the CCD and the A/D converter is also shown in Figure 11. The measured vales were obtained using a system that employed Datel 16 bit analog to digital converters, the ADS931 and ADS933. The system noise obtained matched the Datel specifications exactly and was similar and slightly lower than the CCD noise contribution.

The second stage sources much more current, approximately 5 mA while the voltage drop on the sensor is much smaller, VDD – VOUT where VOUT ~ VRD. The power dissipated by the CCD clocks is calculated using the formula: Power + C @ V 2 @ f Total Power The table below shows the power dissipated at three different pixel frequencies. For each of these cases the amplifier operating conditions are held constant so its contribution is not frequency dependent. The time for the vertical clock transfers is also held constant (90 microseconds per line) but the line time changes depending on the pixel rate. Where C is the capacitance in farads, V is the clock amplitude in volts, and f is the frequency in Hz. Amplifier Power The power dissipated by amplifiers is calculated by Power = I ⋅ V where I is the current and V is the voltage drop on the CCD. The sensor contains two stage source followers.
