ABSTRACT:
An image sensor is disclosed which is capable of handling large amounts of signal charge with small shift registers. The image sensor includes photoelements 10 in which charge is accumulated in response to sensed conditions; electrically-controllable transfer gates 20 adjacent the photoelements 10 for controllably releasing the charge from the photoelements; vertical shift registers 30, separated from the photoelements 10 by the transfer gates 20, for receiving the charge from the photoelements, and a scan generator connected to the barrier 20 for supplying a series of pulses thereto, a group of pulses being required to release all of the charge accumulated in the photoelements 10.
