摘要:
On a wafer coated with photosensitizing agent, plural shots of exposure are applied through a mask including a plurality of reticles each of which has a circuit pattern and a top surface identification information, while the mask and the wafer are relatively moved. Then the wafer is developed and etched to form convex or concave reticle numbers (top surface identification information) on a metal layer which is the uppermost part or a part close to the uppermost part of the wafer. The reticle numbers enables to distinguish each of reticles on the mask. Next, an under surface identification information is recorded on an under surface of the wafer by laser marking or another method. The under surface identification information enables to distinguish each of the shots of exposure.

An image reproducing device that displays frames or index images of still images and moving images so that a user can distinguish the still images from the moving images when looking at them in one-frame reproducing or index reproducing. The display style of the still images is different from that of frames of the moving images. For example, each still image has a white frame like a picture, and a frame of each moving image has perforations like a movie film. Therefore, the user can distinguish the still images from the moving images when looking at them.

A solid-state imaging apparatus includes an image pick-up section in which photosensitive devices are arranged in, e.g., a honeycomb G square lattice, RB full-checker pattern due to shifted pixels. Regions void of the photosensitive devices are assumed to be virtual photosensitive devices. A signal processing section generates data for the virtual photosensitive devices by using the data of surrounding photosensitive devices while attaching importance to accurate color reproduction and horizontal and/or vertical resolution. As a result, the number of pixel data are increased in a square lattice arrangement. Therefore, high quality image signals are readily achievable with a smaller number of photosensitive devices than conventional with a conventional apparatus. Interpolation can be executed with the high quality signals to the limit of resolution with an adequate circuit scale. The honeycomb arrangement guarantees the required size of the individual pixel and thereby the sensitivity of the entire apparatus while increasing yield on a production line. False colors particular to a single photosensitive portion can be reduced by, e.g., uniform interpolation. Particularly, when a digital camera is constructed by using an imaging apparatus including optics operable with a silver halide sensitive type of film, false colors can be reduced without resorting to an optical low pass filter.

A memory card having a liquid crystal display device is reduced in thickness. To this end, the back side of a liquid crystal display panel is provided with a white diffusing plate and the memory card is not provided with a light source for backlighting. A digital electronic still camera, into which the memory card is removably inserted, is provided with a light source for backlighting. When the memory card has been inserted into the digital camera, the transmission-type liquid crystal panel is illuminated using the light source of the camera. Thus an image displayed on the liquid crystal display device of the memory card can be viewed even though the memory card does not have a light source for backlighting.

Management data for managing an image sensing device can be read from the device even after the device has been mounted. To accomplish this, the management data is recorded in a non-effective imaging zone that surrounds an effective imaging area in the read-out area of the image sensing device. The non-effective imaging zone is a zone from which an output signal is not used in generating a sensed target image. The management data can be sensed from the signal output by the image sensing device. In another aspect, management data for managing an image sensing device can be read from the device even after the device has been mounted on a circuit board. To accomplish this, the management data is recorded on a protective glass, which covers the device, using an ink that reflects infrared radiation. A target image having a uniform pattern is sensed using a light source whose emission includes infrared radiation, and the image obtained by such sensing is displayed on a display. The portion of the obtained target image that is the management data appears darker than other portions. The management data is obtained by reading the darkened portion.

An electronic still camera is provided with timing generators in drive signal generating circuitry which are selected to generate various timing signals in accordance with a mode set by mode selection. Two vertical drivers generate substrate potentials defining the signal charge capacity of photo-sensitive cells. In accordance with the mode set, a system controller feeds a mode adaptive selector with a control signal. In response to the mode signal, the mode adaptive selector selects an output from one of the vertical drivers. From the one vertical driver, the photosensitive cells are fed with a predetermined voltage higher than usual as the substrate potential. An image signal obtained is amplified by a signal processing circuit provided in the following stage.

Video signals are recorded in such a manner that prints having a high picture quality can be obtained while not interfering with playback of images in the form of a movie. A CCD is controlled in such a manner that exposure is performed at a shutter speed of 1/250 of a second one time in exposures performed a plurality of times in succession and at a shutter speed of 1/60 of a second at other times. The video signal outputted by the CCD is applied to a combining circuit via a CDS, AGC and signal processing circuit for an image sensing system. A PI signal generating circuit outputs a PI signal, which represents inhibition of printing, in the case where exposure is carried out at the shutter speed of 1/60 of a second, and the combining circuit superposes the PI signal upon the video signal, which has been obtained by exposure at the shutter speed of 1/60 of a second, in the vertical blanking interval of this video signal. The output of the combining circuit is applied to a recording playback head via a signal processing circuit for a recording system, whereby the output is recorded on a video tape.
摘要:
An image input device for imaging an object includes a process circuit which has a negative/positive inversion function for forming a luminance signal and color difference signals to reproduce a negative image from pixel signals corresponding to the object or for forming the luminance signal and the color difference signals to reproduce a positive image from the pixel signals corresponding to the object. An image of the object may be reproduced in the image input device as a video signal in a blue-back mode by a blue-back circuit. The blue-back circuit processes the luminance signal and the color difference signals so that a portion of the object is forcibly colored blue or a family color when the level of the luminance signal outputted from the process circuit is within a predetermined range. Also, the blue-back circuit processes the luminance signal and the color difference signals so that a high brightness portion of the object is forcibly set to a white level or a family color when the level of the luminance signal outputted from the process circuit exceeds the predetermined range. As a result, the image object may be reproduced in the blue-back mode so that an illegible object can be displayed as a legible document.
