High‐resolution interline image sensors using two‐phase CCD technology

Two interline, 30 frames/second, high-resolution image sensors are described that use two-phase charge coupled device (CCD) technology. One is a two-megapixel, interlaced high-definition television, sensor, and the other is a 1-megapixel, progressive-scan sensor for machine vision applications. These sensors include features such as dual-horizontal CCD readout, antiblooming protection, electronic shutter capability, low smear, and no lag.©1994 John Wiley & Sons Inc
