ABSTRACT:
A charge transfer device having a plurality of transfer gates to which phased clock pulses are provided to transfer charge serially from semiconductor regions underlying the transfer gates through an output region underlying an output gate to a charge detector region. The last transfer gate preceding the output gate is fed with a phased clock pulse via a signal line other than the signal lines feeding the remaining transfer gates. The former signal line has an RO time constant lower than that for the other signal lines and permits rapid charge transfer from the last stage to the charge detecting device.
