ABSTRACT:
An imaging system includes a solid-state interline-transfer charge-coupled device (IT-CCD) image sensor having a matrix of rows and columns of photosensitive cells for photoelectrically producing electrical charge carriers in response to an incident light introduced thereonto. Vertical charge-transfer sections are arranged adjacent to the columns of cells, for receiving charge carriers therefrom, and for transferring these carriers toward its outputs, which are coupled with a horizontal charge-transfer section. A charge integration amount control unit is associated with the CCD image sensor such that the controller is coupled to the cell matrix and the vertical transfer sections, for controlling movement of charge carriers from the cell columns to the vertical transfer sections in such a manner that odd-numbered cell rows and even-numbered cell rows are different from each other in the effective amount of charge carriers to be read to the vertical transfer sections as effective signal charge packets.
