The ICX429ALL is an interline CCD solid-state image sensor suitable for CCIR B/W video cameras with a diagonal 8mm (Type 1/2) system. Basic characteristics such as sensitivity, smear, dynamic range and S/N are improved drastically through the adoption of EXview HAD CCDTM technology. This chip features a field period readout system and an electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time. This chip is compatible with the pins of the ICX249AL and has the same drive conditions. EXview HAD CCD TM h as differrent spectral characteristics from the curreent CCD.
