Abstract

A new, high resolution CCD imager has been developed. An interline transfer CCD chip is swung synchronously at frame frequency in a horizontal direction with the aid of newly-designed piezoelectric bimorph actuators. Though the swing operation using these actuators, 560 TV line horizontal limiting resolution, is twice higher than the conventional operation, it has been realized without increasing CCD pixels on the Si-chip. The newly-designed signal processing circuit, its band being less than 7 MHz, fits the NTSC system and has achieved high-resolution images for the new device.
