ABSTRACT:
An on-chip semiconductor pre-filter device is designed with a prescribed low frequency passband (0 to f) and a prescribed stopband (F.+-.f), with a frequency roll-off therebetween. The pre-filter performs a weighted averaging of signal samples taken from an input electrical signal at a suitable sampling frequency and converts the weighted average into an equivalent charge packet for input by injection into a semiconductor charge coupled device (CCD) driven on the same chip by a clock of frequency F. In this way, the "reflected" parts (in band: F.+-.f) of the frequency spectrum of the CCD are suppressed from the input to the CCD, thereby suppressing undesired aliasing in the CCD.
