Overview
The CCD77 family of sensors are full-frame devices with readout registers above and below the image section. The top register, image section and bottom register are designated A, B and C respectively. Each register has a single output at one end and a charge injection structure at the other end for test purposes.
Standard three-phase clocking and buried channel charge transfer are employed . The image section of the device operates in inverted mode for minimum dark current. To maximise the dynamic range, the CCD is manufactured without anti-blooming structures. Teledyne Space Imaging technologies back thinning process ensures high quantum efficiency over a wide range of wavelengths. Several different anti-reflection coatings are available to suit a range of applications.
