UPD16520

Caution Product quality may suffer if the absolute maximum rating is exceeded even momentarily for any parameter. That is, the absolute maximum ratings are rated values at which the product is on the verge of suffering physical damage, and therefore the product must be used under conditions that ensure that the absolute maximum ratings are not exceeded.

The PD16520 is a vertical driver for CCD image sensors that has a level conversion circuit and a 3-level output function. Since it incorporates a CCD vertical register driver equivalent to the PD16510 (10 channels, consisting of six 3-level channels and four 2-level channels) and a VOD shutter driver (1 channel), it is ideal as a vertical driver for multiple-electrode high-pixel CCD transfer type area image sensors employed in digital still cameras.

The PD16520 uses a CMOS process to achieve optimum transmission delay characteristics for vertical driving of CCD image sensors, as well as output on-state resistance characteristics. The PD16520 also supports low-voltage logic (logic supply voltage: 2.0 to 5.5 V).
