■ Overview
The MN3610H is a 2048-pixel high sensitivity CCD linear image sensor combining photo-sites using low dark output floating photodiodes and CCD analog shift registers for read out. It provides large output at a high S/N ratio for visible light inputs over a wide range of wavelength.

■ Features
• 2048 floating photodiodes and n-channel buried type CCD shift
   registers for read out are integrated in a single chip.
• Use of photodiodes with a new structure has made the dark output
   voltage very low.
• All the input pulses can be driven by CMOS 5V-type logics.
• Has a smooth spectral characteristics that is close to the sensitivity
   of the human eye in the entire visible region.
• Large signal output of typically 2000mV at saturation can be
   obtained.
• Since a compensation output pin (DS) is provided in addition to the
   signal output pin (OS), it is possible to obtain a signal with a high
   S/N ratio by carrying out differential amplification of the OS and
   DS outputs.
• Operation with a single +12V positive power supply.

■ Application
• Graphic and character read out in fax machines,
   image scanners, etc.
• Measurement of position and dimensions of
   objects.
