Description The ICX279AL is an interline CCD solid-stateimage sensor suitable for CCIR B/W video cameras with a diagonal 4.5mm (Type 1/4) system. Comparedwith the current product ICX209AL, basiccharacteristics such as sensitivity, smear and dynamic range are improved drastically from visiblelight region to near infrared light region through theadoption of EXview HAD CCD 14 pin DIP (Plastic) > TM technology.This chip features a field period readout system andan electronic shutter with variable charge-storage time.The package is a 10mm-square 14-pin DIP (Plastic). Features Sensitivity in near infrared light region(+5dB compared with the ICX209AL, Վ = 945nm) > Pin 1 ? High sensitivity (+6dB compared with the ICX209AL, no IR cut filter) > 2 ? Low smear (ۖ20dB compared with the ICX209AL) ? High D range (+2dB compared with the ICX209AL) ? Horizontal register:3.3 to 5V drive ? Reset gate:3.3 to 5V drive ?

ICX279AL b)If a load is applied to the entire surface by a hard component, bending stress may be generated and thepackage may fracture, etc., depending on the flatness of the bottom of the package. Therefore, for installation, use either an elastic load, such as a spring plate, or an adhesive.c)The adhesive may cause the marking on the rear surface to disappear, especially in case the regulatedvoltage value is indicated on the rear surface. Therefore, the adhesive should not be applied to this area, and indicated values should be transferred to the other locations as a precaution.d)The notch...
