摘要： In making solid state imaging devices smaller and increasing their number of pixels, it is desirable to increase the charge amount that can be handled per unit area of the transfer portions. It is possible to achieve this by making the insulating film thinner, but this leads to electric fields in the semiconductor substrate that are too strong, and causes problems such as the generation of noise and the deterioration of the transfer efficiency. This invention relaxes potential steps in the transfer region by applying, when a signal charge 1 is being read out (t=t2), a high voltage to the electrode 43 for reading out the signal charge, a low voltage to at least one of the electrodes 41, 45–47 for preventing unnecessary mixing of signal charges, and an intermediate voltage between the high voltage and the low voltage to the electrodes 42 and 44, which are adjacent to the electrode 43 to which the high voltage is applied.

摘要： In a solid-state imaging device, a plurality of vertical charge transfer paths is arranged at a horizontal pitch A within a photoelectric conversion region, and at a pitch B that is smaller than the pitch A in a portion where the signals are input into the horizontal charger transfer path. A read-out amplifier and a horizontal charge transfer path for receiving signals from vertical charge transfer paths are provided for each photoelectric conversion block into which the photoelectric conversion region has been partitioned. The read-out amplifiers have the same shape and their positional relation is one of parallel displacement in regions that are obtained by changing the pitch of the vertical charge transfer portions. Thus, a solid-state imaging device is achieved that is not so easily influenced by mask misalignments or skewed ion implantation angles, and in which signal read-out at high speeds is possible.

摘要： A time division multiplex transmitting/receiving system converts a signal to be transmitted into a signal having a predetermined frequency in a predetermined time slot, which is transmitted as a transmission signal, and receives a transmitted signal having a frequency different from the frequency of the transmitted signal at another time slot different from the time slot of the predetermined frequency, and for demodulating this received signal. The time division multiplex transmitting/receiving system includes a fixed oscillator, a variable oscillator, a mixer, a modulator, a converter, a frequency divider, and a demodulator. The fixed oscillator outputs a first signal having a constant frequency. The variable oscillator outputs a second signal having a predetermined frequency within a predetermined band range. The mixer mixes the first signal with the second signal. The modulator directly modulates a signal to be transmitted by employing the mixed signal. The converter converts the received signal into the intermediate signal by employing the mixed signal. The frequency divider frequency-divides the first signal outputted from the fixed oscillator. The demodulator demodulates the intermediate frequency signal outputted from the converter with using the output from the frequency divider.
