The ICX419AKB is an interline CCD solid-state image sensor suitable for PAL color video cameras with a diagonal 8mm (Type 1/2) system. Compared with the current product ICX039DNB, basic characteristics such as sensitivity, smear, dynamic range and S/N are improved drastically. This chip features a field period readout system and an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time. Also, this outline is miniaturized by using original package. This chip is compatible with the pins of the ICX039DNB and has the same drive conditions.
