AFカメラ用BASISラインセンサーの開発

抄録

A bipolar imaging device (BASIS : BAse-Stored Image Sensor) having charge amplification capability has beed developed. BASIS consists of a capacitor loaded emitter follower circuit for a phototransistor, which has a nondistructive signal read-out as well as a multiple output capability. Using a BASIS, an auto-focus system with a function of a strage time control following a real time peak light intensity monitering has been realized.
