Overview
This version of the CCD47 family of CCD sensors has full-frame architecture. Extremely low noise amplifiers make this device well suited to the most demanding scientific applications. To improve the sensitivity further, the CCD is manufactured without anti-blooming structures.
The 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.
In common with all Teledyne Space Imaging CCD Sensors, the CCD47-10 is also available with a fibre-optic window or taper, or with a phosphor coating.
