Definitions
- This disclosure relates to a circuit board, an image sensor, and a method for manufacturing an image sensor.
- Image sensors read images using sensor ICs (Integrated Circuits) arranged in the longitudinal direction.
- the signal processing section includes a number of signal processing ICs such as FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) and AFEs (Analog Front Ends). Since the number of signal processing ICs that can be mounted on one circuit board is limited, they are mounted on multiple circuit boards. The multiple circuit boards are synchronized with each other and process the image signals read out from each sensor IC.
- the multiple circuit boards that make up the signal processing unit may have different types of mounted components and different lengths of boards depending on the function, arrangement order, etc. In such cases, component management and mounting can become complicated, leading to increased costs and mounting errors.
- a method has been used in which components are enabled and disabled or wiring is switched using switches to reduce the number of board types (for example, Patent Document 1).
- Patent Document 1 The semiconductor integrated circuit described in Patent Document 1 is equipped with a keeper circuit that holds the output logic of the three logic operation circuits and three inverters connected to the output terminals of the logic operation circuits, so that when the output of any one of the first logic operation circuits is at a low level, the output of the other first logic operation circuits is forcibly set to a high level. It is explained that this makes it possible to set only one of the output terminals to a high level.
- the image sensor must read out one line of an image using a single synchronization signal, and multiple boards synchronize to acquire the sensor signal and output an image signal. For this reason, at least two types of boards are required: one that outputs the source clock and synchronization signal, and one that receives it. Also, to ensure that the longitudinal length of the image read at one time conforms to the specifications of the image reading device, multiple types of boards with different numbers of longitudinal pixels capable of signal processing are required.
- Patent Document 1 The semiconductor integrated circuit described in Patent Document 1 includes a logic circuit that selects one of three terminals and outputs it based on eight input signals Q1 to Q8.
- the logic circuit exemplified in Patent Document 1 is insufficient because the number of outputs is small relative to the number of inputs.
- This disclosure has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned circumstances, and aims to provide a circuit board, an image sensor, and a method for manufacturing an image sensor that can function as multiple types of boards with different components or wiring.
- the circuit board of the present disclosure comprises a switch including four or more selection pins, a logic circuit that outputs an ON signal from one output terminal selected from four or more independent output terminals when an ON signal is input from only one predetermined selection pin among the selection pins and an OFF signal is input from all other selection pins, and an electrical component that switches between enabled and disabled based on the output of the logic circuit.
- electrical components are enabled or disabled by the output of a logic circuit based on the input from a selection pin of a switch, allowing a circuit board to function as multiple types of boards with different components or wiring.

- image sensor 1 receives light irradiated from a light source that is transmitted through or reflected from the object to be read, and outputs an analog signal.

- the converted digital signal undergoes signal processing, including rearrangement of image data, on boards 10a to 10h, and is transmitted to board 40 via wiring.
- Board 40 converts the received image signal into a predetermined standard and outputs it to the outside.
- board 40 receives a control signal input from the outside and outputs it to the microcomputer of board 41. Based on the received control signal, the microcomputer of board 41 transmits a control signal to boards 10a-10h through wiring and board 30, thereby controlling boards 10a-10h.
- the boards 10a-10h of the image sensor 1 according to this embodiment are characterized by being one type of circuit board.
- Fig. 2 is a top view of a series of image processing boards 10a-10h arranged in the main scanning direction with adjacent boards connected to each other
- Fig. 3 is a top view of one board 10.
- Boards 10a-10h are all of the same type of circuit board, with the same components mounted on them and the same wiring, and components can be enabled or disabled by switching switches 107.
- board 10 is equipped with a main clock 101, a buffer 102 that conditions the source clock signal output from main clock 101, a connector 103 for a cable that electrically connects the boards, a buffer 104 that conditions the signal input from the previous board, a buffer 105 that conditions the signal to be sent to the previous board, and a signal processing IC.
- the signal processing IC is, for example, an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).
- the board 10 is equipped with a switch 107 that selects the state of the electrical components of the board 10, including whether they are enabled or disabled, and a logic circuit 108 that performs a logical operation on the output of the switch 107 and outputs the result.
- a switch 107 that selects the state of the electrical components of the board 10, including whether they are enabled or disabled
- a logic circuit 108 that performs a logical operation on the output of the switch 107 and outputs the result.
- four or more output terminals of the logic circuit 108 are connected to the main clock 101 and the enable terminals of each of the buffers 102, 104, and 105 via wiring 109.
- the connector 103 of the board 10 is connected to the connector 103 of an adjacent board 10 by a cable 110.
- the switch 107 and the logic circuit 108 will be described in detail with reference to Figures 4 to 10.
- the switch 107 is a physical switch having four or more channels, for example an eight-channel DIP switch (referred to as DIP-SW in the figures).
- DIP-SW eight-channel DIP switch
- One terminal of the switch 107 is connected to GND, and the other terminal, which is a selection pin, is pulled up.
- the first pin P1 to the eighth pin P8 which are selection pins, are at a low level when the switch 107 is ON (shorted), and are at a high level when the switch 107 is OFF (open).
- the logic circuit 108 is a circuit that outputs an ON signal from one of the four or more independent output terminals selected by a logical operation when an ON signal is input from only one of the four or more selection pins of the switch 107 and an OFF signal is input from all the other pins.
- the switch 107 has eight channels. That is, when a Low-level ON signal is input from only one of the first pin P 1 to the eighth pin P 8 of the switch 107 and a High-level OFF signal is input from all the other pins, the logic circuit 108 outputs a Low-level ON signal from one of the output terminals S 1 to S 8 selected by a logical operation.
- the Low or High output of the logic circuit 108 is input as an enable signal to the enable terminals of the buffers 102, 104, and 105 to control whether the buffers are enabled or disabled.
- the logic circuit 108 when the first pin P1 of the switch 107 is set to low, the logic circuit 108 performs a logical operation in which only the output terminal S1 of the logic circuit 108 is set to low. In this case, by turning on only the first channel of the switch 107, the ON signal output from the output terminal S1 of the logic circuit 108 is input to the buffer 102, which enables the buffer 102 and outputs the clock signal of the main clock 101 into the circuit.
- the output terminal S1 of the logic circuit 108 goes High, so that the buffer 102 is disabled and the clock signal is not output to the circuit. This allows the board that outputs the clock signal to be reliably selected using the switch 107. Also, when multiple channels of the switch 107 are turned ON by mistake, the output of the logic circuit 108 goes High, so it is possible to avoid the problem of signal collision due to erroneous operation.
- logic circuit 108 may be input to the enable terminal of main clock 101 to control clock oscillation or stopping. Also, the output of logic circuit 108 may be input to the enable terminals of buffers 104 and 105 to control signal transmission between boards.

- the output of the second logic circuit 1082 is High when the values of the first pin P1 and the fifth pin P5 , the second pin P2 and the sixth pin P6 , the third pin P3 and the seventh pin P7 , and the fourth pin P4 and the eighth pin P8 are the same, and is Low when they are different from each other.
- the third logic circuit 1083 has four negative OR (NOR) circuits 1301, and the output of the first logic circuit 1081 and the output of the second logic circuit 1082 are input to the input of each NOR circuit 1301.

- the output of the fourth logic circuit 1084 is High
- FIG. 10 shows inputs and outputs of the logic circuit 108 having the above-described configuration.
- the logic circuit 108 when a low-level ON signal is input only from the first pin P1 by turning on only the first channel of the switch 107, a low-level ON signal is output from the output terminal S1 .
- a low-level ON signal is input only from the fifth pin P5, only from the second pin P2, only from the sixth pin P6 , only from the third pin P3 , only from the seventh pin P7 , only from the fourth pin P4, and only from the eighth pin P8 , a low-level ON signal is output from the output terminals S5 , S2 , S6 , S3 , S7 , S4 , and S8, respectively.
- logic circuit 108 which operates in this manner, can control the enable/disable of electrical components, including main clock 101, on boards 10a to 10h. Furthermore, if logic circuit 108 was not included and switch 107 was connected directly to the enable terminals of each electrical component, a malfunction could occur if multiple of the eight channels of switch 107 were accidentally turned on; however, by using logic circuit 108, such malfunctions can be avoided.
- logic circuit 108 shown in Figures 4 to 9 are merely examples, and replacements are possible.
- the combination of a negative OR (NOR) circuit and a NOT circuit may be replaced with a logical OR (OR) circuit.
- the combination of a logical AND circuit and a NOT circuit may be replaced with a negative AND (NAND) circuit.
- the combination of an exclusive OR (XOR) circuit and a NOT circuit may be replaced with an exclusive NOT OR (NXOR) circuit.

- the substrates 10a to 10h are fixed to each of the substrates 21 and 22 via the spacers 25 (substrate fixing step).
- the switches 107 of each of the boards 10a to 10h shown in FIG. 2 are operated. Specifically, only one predetermined selection pin of the switch 107 of each of the boards 10a to 10h is turned ON, and the other selection pins are turned OFF. This causes an ON signal to be output from one output selected from eight independent outputs of the logic circuit 108, and the corresponding electrical component is switched to an enabled state (switch setting step).
- board 30 is fixed to boards 10a to 10h via spacers 31. After that, wiring is used to connect boards 40, 41, connectors 51, 52, and FAN 53 fixed to the cover, and boards 10, 30 fixed to the frame 70. After that, cover 80 is fixed to the frame 70.

- the output of the logic circuit 108 is input to the enable terminals of the buffers 102, 104, and 105 to control whether the buffers are enabled or disabled. This makes it possible to realize a long image sensor by using one type of circuit board instead of multiple types of circuit boards for image processing. In addition, since one type of circuit board is used, the manufacturing process can be simplified.
- the image sensor 1 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure is a line sensor in which sensor ICs are arranged in a straight line, and has a similar configuration to the image sensor 1 according to the first embodiment.

That is, as shown in FIG. 11, the logic circuit 128 includes a total AND circuit 1281 that outputs the logical product of output signals from all output terminals other than one output terminal selected from the output terminals S 1 to S 8 of the fourth logic circuit 1084. In FIG. 11, the logical sum of output signals from the output terminals S 2 to S 8 other than the output terminal S 1 is sequentially obtained.
- the logic circuit 128 outputs Low from the output terminal S A when any of the values of the output terminals S 2 to S 8 is Low, and outputs High from the output terminal S A when the values of the output terminals S 2 to S 8 are all High.

- the logic circuit 128 that outputs an enable signal includes the full AND circuit 1281 that outputs the logical product of output signals from all output terminals other than one output terminal selected from the output terminals S 1 to S 8 of the fourth logic circuit 1084.
- the signal from the output terminal S A of the full logic circuit 1281 is also used as an enable signal, so that it is possible to reliably switch between enabled and disabled states of the electrical components.
- the switch 107 when the switch 107 has four channels, this can be achieved by fixing the fifth pin P5 , sixth pin P6 , seventh pin P7 , and eighth pin P8 of the first logic circuit 1081 all to High (pull-up).
