1.2 Description
The KAI-1003M is a high-performance, interline
charge-coupled device (CCD) designed for a wide
range of medical imaging and machine vision
applications. The device is built using an advanced
two-phase, double-polysilicon, NMOS CCD
technology. The p+npn- photodiodes eliminate image
lag while providing antiblooming protection and
electronic shutter capability. The 12.8µm square pixels
with microlenses provide high sensitivity and large
dynamic range. The two output, split horizontal register
and several binning modes enable a 15 to 60 frame per
second (fps) video rate with this megapixel progressive
scan imager.

1.3 Image Acquisition
An electronic representation of an image is formed
when incident photons falling on the sensor plane
create electron-hole pairs within the individual silicon
photodiodes. These photoelectrons are collected locally
by the formation of potential wells at each photodiode.
Below photodiode saturation, the number of
photoelectrons collected at each pixel is linearly
dependent on light level and integration time and
nonlinearly dependent on wavelength. When the
photodiode’s charge capacity is reached, excess
electrons are discharged into the substrate to prevent
blooming. The integration time can be decreased below
the frame time by using an electronic shutter, which is a
voltage pulse applied to the substrate to empty the
photodiodes.
1.4 Charge Transport
The integrated charge from each photodiode is
transported to the output by a three-step process. The
charge is first transferred from the photodiodes to the
vertical shift registers by applying a large positive
voltage to one of the vertical CCD phases. This transfer
occurs simultaneously for all photodiodes. The charge
is then transported from the vertical CCD registers to
the horizontal CCD line by line in parallel. Finally, the
horizontal CCD register transports each line of charge
pixel by pixel serially to one or both of the output
structures.
The single horizontal CCD register is split into two
halves to allow a variety of line readout modes, as
shown in Figures 1 and 2. The A output half of the
register is a true two-phase design, which results in
unidirectional transport using phases H1A and H2A.
The B output half of the register is a pseudo two-phase
design, which allows bi-directional transport using
phases H1B, H2B, H1C and H2C. Dual output is
achieved with all of the first phases identical and all the
second phases identical. If the clocks of H1A and H2A
phases are shifted by one half cycle, the output remains
dual with the outputs alternating, so that only one
analog-to-digital converter is necessary. Finally, single
output of the entire image from the A output is obtained
by complementing the C phases, which reverses
transport in the B half of the horizontal CCD.
Binning can be used in a 1x2 and a 2x2 mode. Two
successive vertical transfers vertically bin the charge
directly onto the horizontal CCD, as shown in Figures
11 and 12. Horizontal binning is accomplished by two
successive horizontal transfers onto the H22 gate,
which then transfers the charge to the output structure,
as shown in Figure 13.
Combinations of output modes, binning and horizontal
clock frequency allow the range of frame rates listed in
Table 1.
1.5 Output Structure
Charge presented to the floating diffusion (FD) is
converted into a voltage and current amplified in order
to drive off-chip loads. The resulting voltage change
seen at the output is linearly related to the amount of
charge placed on the FD. Once the signal has been
sampled by the system electronics, the reset gate (φR) is
clocked to remove the signal and the FD is reset to the
potential applied by the reset drain (RD). More signal
at the floating diffusion reduces the voltage seen at the
output pin. In order to activate the output structure, an
off-chip load must be added to the output pin of the
device.
1.6 Non-Imaging Pixels
In addition to the 1024 (H) by 1024 (V) imaging pixels,
there are active buffer, light shielded and empty pixels,
as shown in Figure 1. A two-pixel border of active
buffer pixels surrounds the imaging area. These buffer
pixels respond to illumination but are not tested for
defects and non-uniformities. Two light shielded rows
lead and follow each frame, and 14 light shielded
columns lead and follow each line. The light shielded
columns are tested for column defects and can be used
for dark reference. Only the center 10 columns by 1028
rows of light shielded region on each side can be used
for dark reference due to light leakage into the border
of two pixels at the edges. Finally, two empty pixels
occur at the beginning of each line, which are empty
shift register cycles not associated with any vertical
CCD columns. Empty pixels may also occur at the end
of the line, depending on the timing.

Output voltage at the saturation level Vsat 1.3 V
Quantum efficiency at 500 nm 32 %
Quantum efficiency at 540 nm 30 %
Quantum efficiency at 600 nm 24 %
CCD readout noise with CDS 40 50 e rms
Dark current Idark 0.25 0.45 nA/cm2

Gain difference between the two video outputs 10 % 5
Nonuniformity of gain between the two outputs 0.5 1.5 % 5
Notes:
1. The illumination required to bloom the image sensor reported as a multiple of the saturation intensity. Blooming is
defined as doubling the vertical height of a spot that is 10% of the vertical CCD height at the saturation intensity.
2. Measured with continuous green light centered at 550 nm, F/4 optics and a spot size that is 10% of the vertical CCD
height.
3. Measured at 90% of 150ke output.
4. Measured in the center 50 x 50 pixels.
5. Between 10% and 90% of 150ke output.
6. Measured without electronic shutter operation.

26 Revision 4.1
5.1 Quality Assurance and Reliability
5.1.1 Quality Strategy: All image sensors will conform to the specifications stated in this document. This will be
accomplished through a combination of statistical process control and inspection at key points of the production
process. Typical specification limits are not guaranteed but provided as a design target. For further information refer
to ISS Application note MTD/PS-0292, Quality and Reliability.
5.1.2 Replacement: All devices are warranted against failure in accordance with the terms of Terms of Sale. This does
not include failure due to mechanical and electrical causes defined as the liability of the customer below.
5.1.3 Liability of the Supplier: A reject is defined as an image sensor that does not meet all of the specifications in this
document upon receipt by the customer.
5.1.4 Liability of the Customer: Damage from mechanical (scratches or breakage), electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage,
or other electrical misuse of the device beyond the stated absolute maximum ratings, which occurred after receipt of
the sensor by the customer, shall be the responsibility of the customer.
5.1.5 ESD Precautions: Devices are shipped in static-safe containers and should only be handled at static-safe
workstations. See ISS Application Note MTD/PS-0224 for handling recommendations.
5.1.6 Reliability: Reliability results are available from Image Sensor Solutions and can be supplied upon request. For
further information refer to ISS Application Note MTD/PS-0292, Quality and Reliability.
5.1.7 Test Data Retention: Image sensors shall have an identifying number traceable to a test data file. Test data shall be
kept for a period of 2 years after date of delivery.
5.1.8 Mechanical: The device assembly drawing is provided as a reference. The device will conform to the published
package tolerances.
