Description

The FTF3020-C is a full frame CCD colour image sensor designed

for professional digital photography applications, with very low dark

current and a linear dynamic range of over 12 true bits at room

temperature.The four low-noise output amplifiers, one at each corner

of the chip, make the FTF3020-C suitable for a wide range of high-

end visual light applications.With one output amplifier, a progressively

scanned image can be read out at 5 frames per second. By using

multiple outputs the frame rate increases accordingly. The device

structure is shown in figure 1.
