Abstract

CCD 출력 신호는 아날로그 클램프 회로(43)에 의해 아날로그 클램프 에리어에 클램프되고, 그 후 A/D변환기(46)에서 디지탈 신호로 변환된다. 디지탈 신호는 그 후 클램프 레벨 산출 회로(50)에서 클램프 레벨을 산출되고, 이것에 의해 제1감산 회로(82)에서 디지탈 클램프를 건다. 여기에서, 아날로그 클램프 에리어는 그횡 방향 양단이 디지탈 클램프 에리어외에 위치하도록 설정된다. 따라서, 아날로그 클램프를 가할 때에 아날로그 클램프 에리어의 횡 방향 양단에서 CCD 출력 신호에 노이즈가 중첩됨으로써도 그 노이즈가 디지탈 클램의 처리에 영향을 미치지 않는다.
아날로그 클램프 에리어의 횡 방향 양단이 디지탈 클램프 에리어외에 위치하도록 아날로그 클램프 에리어를 설정했기 때문에, CCD 출력에 적절한 디지탈 클램프를 가할 수 있다.
