CCD Linear Sensors by
FAIRCHILD IMAGING INC. 

sample picture by an FAIRCHILD IMAGING sensor

The “buried-channel” technology of FAIRCHILD IMAGING allows the production of CCD linear sensors with an excellent internal charge transfer with low noise and high signal to noise ratio. Because of this these sensors are e.g. often used for spectroscopy purposes. Other applications are found in the industrial quality control as well as in many scientific and military projects, where a high resolution and sensitivity is needed.

All linear sensors provide a ceramic housing to be used also in extended temperature ranges. On request the sensor can also be delivered without glass cover directly from the factory.

The sensor CCD181EDC can be configured to different pixel numbers. The CCD111ADC and the CCD111BDC differ in their sensitivity in the VNIR range.

In sensors with antiblooming circuit special structures on the chip avoid that bright regions of the optical image cause the readout register to saturate and to distort the recorded signal. Exposure control allows integration times below the line frequency of the sensor, which is essential e.g. for imaging quickly moving objects. Sensors with enhanced blue sensitivity provide an increased sensitivity in the range of 400nm. CDS (CDS = Correlated Double Sampling) finally is a technology which increases the signal-to-noise ratio of the sensor.

Normally smaller volumes of these sensors can be delivered directly from the stock of EURECA.
