Investigation of charge coupled device correlation techniques

Abstract

Analog Charge Transfer Devices (CTD's) offer unique advantages to signal processing systems, which often have large development costs, making it desirable to define those devices which can be developed for general system's use. Such devices are best identified and developed early to give system's designers some interchangeable subsystem blocks, not requiring additional individual development for each new signal processing system. The objective of this work is to describe a discrete analog signal processing device with a reasonably broad system use and to implement its design, fabrication, and testing.
