A New Method of Sensing Images The First 8-bit Charge-Coupled Device BELL LABS
The first 8-bit CCD, this chip consists of twenty-four closely packed MOS capacitors (the narrow rectangles in the football-field-like grid in the center). The thick rectangles at either end of the grid are input/output terminals. This chip can detect and reproduce simple images, like the letters CCD. Today's CCDs can store up to 64K bits of data. Actual size: 0.060 x 0.100 inches.
