6. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
Figure 4 is the block diagram of W6662, it consists of three channel clamp circuit for CDS mode, a
multiplexer to mux 3-channel inputs and outputs to a correlated double sampling (CDS), a
programmable gain control and offset adjustment amplifier, a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter.
Bandgap reference circuit generate voltage reference signals for input signals clampping and
correlated sampling use (in CDS mode), for offset D/A converter and output A/D converter use. The
select signals SEL1 and SEL0 are used to select the offset registers and gain registers, the input
channels may be selected simultaneously.
6.1 Clamp Circuit
The capacitor between the output of CCD/CIS device and W6662 is used to block the DC voltage
(even as high voltage). The clamp circuit is used to remove unwanted common-mode voltage in the
input pixel data and to get a maximum input signal span when the input is driven by CCD device as
shown in Figure 6-1. The input pins of W6662 are clampped to a internal offset voltage while valid
pixel signal is input. The clamp switches at three channels of figure 6-1 are turn on whenever
CDSCK1 goes high. Figure 6-2 shows the waveform between output of CCD device and input of
W6662, the voltage change on the capacitor will be clampped.
