Abstract

A 1k X 1k frame transfer progressive scan imager was developed, based on a 1k X 1k interlaced frame transfer imager, the FT12. The sensors are designed for 2/3' optical format. They have a high resolution (1024 X 1024 pixels), overexposure handling by means of vertical anti-blooming, and square pixels of 7.5 micrometers by 7.5 micrometers . The frame rate is 30 frames per second. The single output register can run up to 40 MHz. The register can be clocked bi-directionally, which makes it possible to produce a mirrored image. The paper describes the sensors, simulations, and measurements.
