XRD9818
3-CHANNEL 16-BIT LINEAR CCD/CIS SENSOR SIGNAL PROCESSOR
JUNE 2004
REV. 1.0.1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRD9818 is a fully integrated, high-performance
analog
signal
processor/digitizer
specifically
designed for use in 3-channel/2-channel/1-channel
CCD/CIS document imaging applications.
Each channel of the XRD9818 includes a Correlated
Double
Sampler
(CDS),
Offset
adjustment,
Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA).
After the gain
and
offset
adjustments
the
analog
inputs
are
sequentially sampled and digitized by a 16-bit A/D
converter. The digital output data is available in 8 or
4-bit wide multiplexed format.
The analog front-end can be configured for use in
CCD or CIS data acquisition applications. The CDS
mode of operation supports both line and pixel-clamp
modes and can be used to achieve significant
reduction in system 1/f noise and CCD reset clock
feed-through. Five programmable clamp levels are
available in CCD mode to adjust for CCD signal swing
and reset pulse size.
For CIS mode there are 3
selectable reference options, two internally generated
and one external applied reference.
Two PGA ranges, programmable through the serial
port, help interface the XRD9818 to CCD imagers
that have either a 3V or 2V output swings. The range
of 1x to 5x is used for 3V inputs and the range of 1.5x
to 7.5x is used for 2V inputs. Each channel has an
offset range of -180mV to 180mV (1.4mV/step) for
fine adjustment and an additional -100mV to 200mV
(100mV/step) of gross offset adjustment to correct for
any system offsets.
