CCD Linear Image Sensor
MN3674
Color CCD Linear Image Sensor
with 512 Pixels for R and B Colors/1024 Pixels for G Color
s
Overview
The MN3674 is a high responsivity CCD color linear image sensor
with 512 pixels each for R and B and 1024 G pixels, and having low
dark output floating photodiodes in the photodetector region and
CCD analog shift registers for read out.
It can read a 64mm-width color document with a high quality and a
maximum pseudo resolution of 400dpi. In addition to being used as a
color sensor, this device can also be used as a black and white sensor
if only the G row is used, and in this case, it is possible to read a
64mm-width document with a full resolution of 400dpi. Since a one
line delay analog memory is built in so as to compensate for the
difference in the positions of reading out between the R, B rows and
the G row, the configuration of the signal processing circuit becomes
simpler.

Features
•
2048 floating photodiodes and n-channel buried type CCD shift
registers for read out are integrated in a single chip.
•
RGB primary colors type on chip color filters are used for color
separation.
•
In order to compensate for the distance between the photodiode
rows for the R, B colors and the G color, the device has a built in
analog memory that can store the signals of one line of the R-B
colors row.
•
All clock inputs can be driven by 5V CMOS logic.
•
Use of photodiodes with a new structure has made the dark output
voltage very low.
•
Large signal output of typically 0.8V at saturation can be obtained.

Unit
Note 1) Responsivity (R)
This is the value obtained by dividing the average output voltage (V) of the all pixels by the exposure (lx· s).
The exposure (lx· s) is the product of the illumination intensity (lx) and the accumulation time (s).
Since the responsivity changes with the spectral distribution of the light source used, care should be taken when using a
light source other than the daylight type fluorescent lamp specified in the inspection conditions.
Note 2) Photo response non-uniformity (PRNU)
This is defined by the following equation where X
ave
is the average output voltage of the valid pixels of each of the colors
R, G, and B, and
∆x
is the difference between the output voltage of the maximum (or minimum) output pixel and X
ave
,
when the photodetector region is illuminated with light of a uniform illumination intensity distribution.

The incident light intensity shall be 50% of the standard saturation llight intensity.

Note 3) Saturation output voltage:
This is the output voltage at the point beyond which it is not possible to maintain the linearity of the photoelectric
conversion characteristics as the exposure is increased. (The exposure at this point is called the saturation exposure.)
Note 4) Saturation Exposure (SE)
This is the exposure beyond which it is not possible to maintain the linearity of the output voltage as the exposure is
increased. When designing the equipment using these devices, make sure that the incident light exposure is set with
sufficient margin so that the CCD never gets saturated.
Note 5) Dark signal output voltage (V
DRK
)
This is defined as the average of the output from all the valid pixels in the dark condition at Ta=25˚C, T
int
=10ms.
Normally, the dark signal output voltage gets doubled for every 8 to 10˚C increase in Ta and is proportional to T
int
. The
dark signal output voltage (V
DRK2
) on the OS
2
side will be larger than the dark signal output voltage (V
DRK1
) on the OS
1
side because there is a delay memory on the OS
2
side.
Note 6) Dark signal non-uniformity (DSNU)
This is defined as the difference between the maximum value among the output voltages of the all valid pixels at
Ta=25˚Cand T
int
=10ms and V
DRK
.

Note 7) Dynamic range (DR)
This is defined by the following equation.
DR= V

Since the dark signal output voltage is proportional to the accumulation time, the dynamic range becomes wider when the
accumulation time is shorter.
