2. Description of the Related Art Recently, C of 1/3 inch and 1/4 inch
Many solid-state imaging devices such as CDs are used in mass-produced video cameras and the like. However, the above-mentioned solid-state imaging device is provided with a transparent protective cover on its front surface in order to protect the photoelectric conversion surface, and even if the assembling work is performed in a clean room, the protective cover does not have a fine structure. Dust may adhere. Depending on the size of the dust, it interferes with the normal photoelectric conversion operation, and the adhesion of the dust causes the yield rate to be extremely poor. Therefore, as a technique proposed as a solution to the problem, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No.
There is a CCD image sensor disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-114166. This CCD image sensor is conventionally a CC
The distance between the surface of the D device and the outer surface of the protective glass was 1.63 mm, while the dimension was about 3 mm.
When the thickness is set to mm, the effect of dust adhering on the protective glass on photography is reduced, and the work for cleaning the outer surface of the protective glass is facilitated.

The factor that changes the degree of the influence of the dust adhering on the protective glass on the photoelectric conversion of the CCD is the distance between the exposed surface of the CCD and the outer surface of the protective glass. In addition, the image pickup optical system to be applied has a great influence. For example, when the aperture value of the lens of the image pickup optical system becomes very large, even if the size of the dust is small to some extent, the ratio of the area occupied by the dust on the image pickup optical path becomes large, and the change of the light amount S on the image pickup surface is increased. The influence on the / N ratio cannot be ignored. However,
C disclosed in the above-mentioned JP-A-63-114166
In the CD image sensor, the distance between the surface of the CCD device and the outer surface of the protective glass is simply specified to be 3 mm, and the above-mentioned lens aperture value and the like are not taken into consideration. Therefore, it cannot be said that the distance between the exposed surface of the CCD and the outer surface of the protective glass is selected based on the conditions suitable for the image pickup optical system to be applied.

FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing an optical path of an image pickup optical system using a CCD which is a solid-state image pickup device showing an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the CCD 1 is provided with an image pickup surface 1b and a protective cover-1c formed of transparent glass on the front surface thereof. Further, a lens 2 for image pickup is arranged in front of the CCD 1 along the optical axis O. Also,
It is assumed that the supposed dust 3 having a minimum size determined from the dustproof capacity of the clean room in the manufacturing process is attached to the protective cover surface 1d which is the surface of the protective glass 1c facing the lens 2. In the CCD 1 of this embodiment, the minimum value of the distance between the protective cover surface 1d and the image pickup surface 1b, which is allowable in terms of the performance of the CCD 1, is obtained based on the characteristics of the image pickup optical system with respect to the size of the adhering dust 3. , The outer shape of the CCD 1 is determined.

The subject light H incident on the CCD 1 through the lens 2 is focused on the image pickup surface 1b.
The subject light H is refracted by the protective glass 1c and is transmitted. Therefore, strictly speaking, it is necessary to apply the position of the focal point in consideration of the state where the subject light H is not refracted, that is, the state where the subject light H is transmitted straight in the air, to the image pickup surface 1b as an equivalent image pickup surface. Here, the focal length between the lens 2 and the imaging surface 1b is L. Further, a dimension Δt indicating the optical path length between the protective cover surface 1d and the imaging surface 1b is set. Further, if the aperture diameter of the lens 2 is D, the F number of the lens 2 and the aperture value F are: F = L / D (1) However, assuming that the value F has the greatest influence, it is assumed that the value at the minimum aperture in the range used by the imaging optical system used is applied. Furthermore,
The dimension along the longest direction of the assumed dust 3 is Δd. The size of the dust 3 projected in the same direction on the surface of the lens 2 from the image pickup surface 1b side is ΔD.

And the above-mentioned protective cover surface 1 which is acceptable in terms of the performance of CCD 1.
Find the relationship of the size Δt up to d. In this embodiment, the S / N value obtained for the video signal obtained on the basis of the photoelectric conversion output of the CCD 1 is considered as a criterion for determination. This S / N value is indicated by the attenuation value of the light amount, and is 46 dB as a general value. This value corresponds to 200 as a coefficient k indicating the S / N value of the actual light amount reduction rate. Therefore, the relationship between the size ΔD of the projection dust 3 on the lens 2 and the aperture diameter D of the lens 2 that satisfies the actual light amount reduction ratio is as follows: D 2 / ΔD 2 > 200 … (2) Must be. Further, the relationship between the actual size Δd of the dust 3 and the size ΔD of the projected dust is as follows from the optical path shown in FIG. That is, ΔD 2 = (L 2 / Δt 2 ) · Δd 2 (3)

The allowable dust size Δd corresponding to is calculated. That is, Δd <(1 / F) · (Δt / 14) ... (4). That is, the image pickup apparatus has a lens 2 having a minimum aperture value F.
And a CCD having an optical path length dimension Δt up to the CCD protection cover surface 1d, even if dust of a size satisfying the expression (4) adheres to the surface of the CCD 1, the light quantity attenuation ratio of the CCD 1 There is no hindrance. Further, if the minimum aperture value F and the maximum size Δd of dust that can be attached are given from the assembly work environment condition, the CCD 1 that can be used without any trouble
The optical path length dimension Δt to the surface 1d of the protective cover is obtained from (4).

Looking at the relationship between the above values using concrete numerical values, for example, the minimum aperture value F of the lens 2 is 22, and the dimension Δt to the protective cover surface 1b of the CCD 1 is 6
If it is mm, the allowable dust size Δd is 0.0194 mm, that is, 19.4 μm from the equation (4). In this embodiment, since the dust that adheres to the outer surface of the protective cover-1c is targeted, it is assumed that the dust does not adhere to the inner surface of the image forming surface, and the case of the CCD1 and the protective cover. 1c is fixed by adhesion so that dust does not enter inside.
