    摘要: A solid-state imaging device is provided which employs CCDs as vertical shift registers and a horizontal shift register for vertically and horizontally scanning and reading out a large number of photoelectric elements arrayed in a two-dimensional plane. The imaging device is characterized in that the photoelectric elements of each column arranged between the vertical shift registers are alternately connected to the right and left vertical shift registers. This results in the resolution of the device being enhanced sharply.

    摘要: A solid-state imager includes vertical CCD shift registers for transferring photogenerated signal charge packets produced by a group of photodiodes belonging to a first series, vertical CCD shift registers for transferring photogenerated signal charge packets produced by photodiodes belonging to a second series, a horizontal CCD shift register for receiving signal charge packets shifted through both the vertical shift registers and transferring them to an output circuit and a coupling circuit provided between the horizontal CCD shift register and both the vertical CCD shift registers, all the components being formed on a single semiconductor substrate. Through the coupling circuit, one of two series of photogenerated signal packets transferred from both the vertical CCD shift registers located adjacent to each other are transferred to the horizontal CCD shift register beneath a set of storage electrodes thereof, which is followed by the transfer of the other series of signal charge packets to the horizontal shift register beneath other set of storage electrode. The horizontal CCD shift register transfers sequentially and alternately two series of the photogenerated signal charge packets to an output circuit. Two series of the signal charge packets can thus be transferred through the single horizontal CCD shift register.

    摘要: This invention relates to a tri-state type driver circuit in which any one of the three possible output signals of "float", "on", or "off" is produced at high speed even when an output terminal is accompanied with a great load. The tri-state type driver circuit comprises an output inverter circuit which employs a bipolar transistor as a load thereof and a MOS-FET as a driver thereof, a first logical circuit which is coupled to an input terminal of the bipolar transistor, which first logical circuit is made up of a C-MOS circuit receiving an external select signal and a C-MOS circuit having an input signal transmitted thereto and whose output can be specified by the external select signal, and a second logical circuit which is coupled to an input terminal of the MOS-FET, which second logical circuit is made up of a C-MOS circuit receiving the external select signal and a C-MOS circuit having the input signal transmitted thereto. The state of the external select signal will determine whether the driver circuit output will be "float" (regardless of the input to the driver circuit) or "on" or "off" (in correspondence with the input to the driver circuit).

    摘要: A static RAM memory is divided into a plurality of mats (12). Word lines (16) in each pair of mats are accessed by an x-decoder (14). Columns or bit lines are accessed by a y-decoder (20) which selectively connect pairs of bit lines (22) to common data bus segments (24). Transistors (60, 62) connect selected bit lines with a load during a write cycle to stabilize those bit lines and memory cells into which data is written. The x-decoders are connected with near word lines (16a) for addressing a near half of each mat and are operatively connected with remote word lines (16b) for addressing word lines in a remote half of each mat. In this manner, each mat is divided into two effective mats. The bit lines of all the effective mats within an actual mat are connected with the same output data bus segment. A pair of sensing amplifiers (32) is provided for each bit of memory which is accessed concurrently, e.g. eight bits, such that the high and low output of each flip-flop memory cell (18) are both amplified. A pair of driving amplifiers (34) further amplify each high and low output before applying them to an output data bus (38).
