ICX208AL
Diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) CCD Image Sensor for EIA B/W Video Cameras
Description
14 pin DIP (Plastic)
The ICX208AL is an interline CCD solid-state image
sensor suitable for EIA B/W video cameras. Compared
with the current product ICX068AL, sensitivity and
saturation signal are improved drastically through the
adoption of Super HAD CCD technology.
This chip features a field period readout system and
an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time.
The package is a 10mm-square 14-pin DIP (Plastic).
