About

This version of the CCD47 family of CCD sensors has frame transfer architecture, which in combination with extremely low noise amplifiers, makes the device well suited to the most demanding scientific applications.

This device has a single serial output register. Separate charge detection circuits are incorporated at each end of the register, which is split so that a line of charge can be transferred to either output, or split between the two.

The register is provided with a drain and control gate along the outer edge of the channel for charge dump purposes.

The sensor is made using Teledyne Space Imaging Advanced Inverted Mode process to minimise dark current, allowing the device to be operated with extended integration periods and minimal cooling. Other variants of the CCD47-20 available are front illuminated format and non-inverted mode.

Typical applications: spectroscopy, scientific imaging, medical imaging.
