The TC246CYM is a new device of the IMPACTRONTM family of very-low noise, high sensitivity, high speed and low smear sensors that multiply charge directly in the charge domain before conversion to voltage. The charge carrier multiplication (CCM) is achieved by using a low-noise single-carrier, impact ionization process that occurs during repeated carrier transfers through high field regions. Applying multiplication pulses to specially designed gates activates the CCM. Multiplication gain is variable by adjusting the amplitude of the multiplication pulses. The device function resembles the function of an image intensifier implemented in solid state. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS POST OFFICE BOX 655303 * DALLAS TEXAS 75265 1 TC246CYM-B0 680 x 500 PIXEL IMPACTRONTM COMPLEMENTARY COLOR CCD IMAGE SENSOR SOCS089 – MAY 2005 The image-sensing area of the TC246CYM is configured into 500 lines with 680 pixels in each line. 20 pixels are reserved in each line for dark reference. The blooming protection is based on an advanced lateral overflow drain concept that does not reduce NIR response. The frame interline transfer from the image sensing area to the memory area is implemented to minimize image smear. After charge is integrated and stored in the memory it is available for readout in the next cycle. This is accomplished by using a unique serial register design that includes special charge multiplication pixels. The TC246CYM sensor is built using TI-proprietary advanced Split-Gate Virtual-Phase CCD (SGVPCCD) technology, which provides devices with wide spectral response, high quantum efficiency (QE), low dark current, and high response uniformity. This MOS device contains limited built-in protection. During storage or handling, the device leads should be shorted together or the device should be placed in conductive foam. In a circuit, unused inputs should always be connected to Vss. Under no circumstances should pin voltages exceed absolute maximum ratings. Avoid shorting OUT to Vss during operation to prevent damage to the amplifier. The device can also be damaged if the output and ADB terminals are reverse-biased and excessive current is allowed to flow. Specific guidelines for handling devices of this type are contained in the publication “Guidelines for Handling Electrostatic-Discharge-Sensitive (ESD) Devices and Assemblies” available from Texas Instruments.

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 pseudointerlace scan. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS POST OFFICE BOX 655303 * DALLAS TEXAS 75265 5 TC246CYM-B0 680 x 500 PIXEL IMPACTRONTM COMPLEMENTARY COLOR CCD IMAGE SENSOR SOCS089 – MAY 2005 20 columns at the left edge and 2 columns at the right edge of the image-sensing area are shielded from the incident light. These pixels provide the dark reference used in subsequent video-processing circuits to restore the video-black level. Additionally, 4 dark lines, located between the image sensing area and the image-storage area, were added to the array for isolation. Advanced lateral overflow drain Each pixel is constructed with the advanced lateral overflow drain structure. By varying the DC bias of the anti-blooming drain it is possible to control the blooming protection level and trade it for well capacity. Electronic exposure control Precise exposure control timing on a frame-by-frame basis is possible. The integration time can be arbitrarily shortened from its nominal length by clearing residual charge from the PD-cell. To do this, apply a PD-cell clear pulse to IAG2, which marks the beginning of integration. Serial register and charge multiplier The serial register of TC246CYM image sensor consists of only poly-silicon gates. It operates at high speed, being clocked from 0V to 8V. This allows the sensor to work at 60 Fields/s. The serial register is used for transporting charge stored in the pixels of the memory lines to the output amplifier. The TC246CYM device has a serial register with twice the standard length. The first half has a conventional design that interfaces with the memory as it would in any other CCD sensor. The second half, however, is unique and includes 400 charge multiplication stages with a number of dummy pixels that are needed to transport charge between the active register blocks and the output amplifier. Charge is multiplied as it progresses from stage to stage in the multiplier toward the charge detection node. The charge multiplication level depends on the amplitude of the multiplication pulses (approximately 15V~22V) applied to the multiplication gate. Due to the double length of the register, first 2 lines in each field or frame scan do not contain valid data and should be discarded. Charge detection node and buffer amplifier The last element of the charge detection and readout chain is the charge detection node with the buffer amplifier. The charge detection node is using a standard Floating Diffusion (FD) concept followed by an on-chip, dual-stage, source-follower buffer. Applying a pulse to the RST pin resets the detection node. To achieve the ultimate sensor performance it is necessary to eliminate kTC noise. This is typically accomplished by using CDS (correlated double sampling) processing techniques. IMPACTRONTM devices have the potential for detecting single electrons (photons) when cooled sufficiently.
