KAF-6303 3072 (H) x 2048 (V) Full Frame CCD Image Sensor Description The KAF−6303 Image Sensor is a high performance CCD (charge-coupled device) with 3072 (H) × 2048 (V) photo active pixels 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. www.onsemi.com Table 1.

Block Diagram 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. The sensor consists of 3,088 parallel (vertical) CCD shift registers each 2,056 elements long. These registers act as both the photosensitive elements and as the transport circuits that allow the image to be sequentially read out of the sensor. The elements of these registers are arranged into a 3,072 × 2,048 photosensitive array surrounded by a light shielded dark reference of 16 columns and 8 rows. The parallel (vertical) CCD registers transfer the image one line at a time into a single 3,100 element (horizontal) CCD shift register. The horizontal register transfers the charge to a single output amplifier. The output amplifier is a two-stage source follower that converts the photo-generated charge to a voltage for each pixel. Image Acquisition 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 8. Dark Reference Pixels Surrounding the peripheral of the device is a border of light shielded pixels. This includes 6 leading and 10 trailing pixels on every line excluding dummy pixels. There are also 4 full dark lines at the start of every frame and 4 full dark lines at the end of each frame. Under normal circumstances, these pixels do not respond to light. However, dark reference pixels in close proximity to an active pixel, or the outer bounds of the chip (including the first two lines out), can scavenge signal depending on light intensity and wavelength and therefore will not represent the true dark signal. Charge Transport Referring again to Figure 8, 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’s 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’s then transport 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 fH2, a new charge packet is transferred onto a floating diffusion and sensed by the output amplifier. Dummy Pixels Within the horizontal shift register are 10 leading and 2 trailing additional shift phases that are not associated with a column of pixels from the vertical register. These pixels www.onsemi.com 3 KAF−6303 Horizontal Register Output Structure Charge presented to the floating diffusion (FD) 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 FD. Once the signal has been sampled by the system electronics, the reset gate (fR) is clocked to remove the signal and FD is reset to the potential applied by VRD. 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.
