5. Transfer of Electric Charge by the Horizontal CCD The transfer system for the horizontal CCD emplays a 2-phase drive method. The electric charges sent to the final stage of the horizontal CCD are transferred to the floating diffusion, as shown in Fig. 1-6. RG is turned on by the timing in (1), and the floating diffusion is charged to the potential of PD. The RG is turned off by the timing in (2). In this condition, the floating diffusion is floated at high impedance. The H1 potential becomes

LCD Block During EE, gamma conversion is carried out for the 10-bit RGB data which is input from the A/D conversion block of the CCD to the ASIC in order that the revised can be displayed on the video. The YUV of 640 x 480 is then transferred to the SVRAM. The data which has accumulated in the SDRAM is after D/A conversion is carried out by SDRAM control circuit inside the ASIC, makes Y/C signal, the data is sent to the LCD panel and displayed.

1-6. SY1 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION 1. Configuration and Functions For the overall configuration of the SY1 circuit board, refer to the block diagram. The configuration of the SY1 circuit board centers around a 8-bit microprocessor (IC301). The 8-bit microprocessor handles the following functions. 1. Operation key input, 2. Mode LCD display, 3. Clock control, 4. Power ON/OFF, 5. Storobe charge control Pin Signal I/O Outline 1 CHG VOL I Strobe charge voltage input (analog input) I 2~7 SCAN IN Key matrix

2. Internal Communication Bus The SY1 circuit board carries out overall control of camera operation by detecting the input from the keyboard and the condition of the camera circuits. The 8-bit microprocessor reads the signals from each sensor element as input data and outputs this data to the camera circuits (ASIC) or to the LCD display device as operation mode setting data. Fig. 4-1 shows the internal commu- nication between the 8-bit microprocessor and ASIC. ASIC RESET S. REQ ASIC SO 8-bit ASI

4. Power Supply Control The 8-bit microprocessor controls the power supply for the overall system. The following is a description of how the power supply is turned on and off. When the battery is attached, a regulated 3.2 V voltage is normally input to the 8-bit microprocessor (IC301) by IC302, so that clock counting and key scanning is carried out even when the power switch is turned off, so that the camera can start up again. When the battery is removed, the 8-bit micro- processor operates in
