Input devices for CCDs
Abstract
A systematic account of the physical and network-engineering aspects of the operation and design of input devices for CCDs is presented with emphasis on the maximum possibilities of such devices with respect to the injection of small signals into the CCD. A classification of input devices is given. It is shown that a unified approach to input devices as devices that are based on transistor structures makes it possible to identify the properties and limitations of all types of input devices for CCDs. Particular consideration is given to potentials and charges of MOS cells, methods of signal injection, the concentration of charge carriers in the source and gate, and the volt-ampere characteristics of input devices. Equivalent circuits, modes of operation, and electric circuits of input devices are also considered
