Abstract :
A very high-speed image sensor for image recording at up to 2,000 full or 12,000 partial frames per second consists of a 192 V × 248 H array of photocapacitors. For high-speed operation, the image-sensing area is divided into six blocks, each block having 32 parallel outputs. The blocks are addressed sequentially, and the 32 outputs are sensed simultaneously. The sensor dynamic range is 46 dB at 2,000 fps. Spectral sensitivity, noise, and spatial resolution are discussed.
