ABSTRACT:
A signal processing device comprises a charge transfer device and a driving circuit, which includes a reference signal generating circuit for generating a reference signal, a transfer clock generating circuit receiving the reference signal for generating a transfer clock to a charge transfer section of the charge transfer device, a digital counter of N bits receiving and counting the reference signal, a D/A converter receiving the output of said counter for converting it into an analog voltage signal, which is applied to a final transfer gate of the charge transfer device, and a latch for latching an output of the counter when an output of a electric charge detection circuit of the charge transfer device reaches a predetermined level, whereby the latch outputs a digital signal of N bits corresponding to a signal electric charge outputted from the charge transfer section.
