ABSTRACT:
A charge regenerator for a semiconductor charge transfer device is disclosed in which the regenerator contains an input diode which is subjected to a pulsed voltage. The signal to be regenerated is applied to a control gate electrode which controls the surface potential of the underlying semiconductor surface region located between the input diode and an auxiliary transfer cell feeding an array of output charge transfer cells. After termination of the diode pulse, charges flow back from the auxiliary transfer cell to the input diode through the control gate region such that the charge remaining in the auxiliary transfer cell is independent of the signal level on the control gate so long as this signal level is above a threshold for the injection of charges from the input diode to the auxiliary transfer cell and is zero otherwise.
