3. IC932 (V Driver)
A V driver (IC932) is necessary in order to generate the clocks
(vertical transfer clock and electronic shutter clock) which
driver the CCD.
In addition the XV1-XV8 signals which are output from IC102
are vertical transfer clocks, and the XSG signal is superim-
posed onto XV1, XV3, XV5 and XV7 at IC932 in order to gen-
erate a ternary pulse. In addition, the XSUB signal which is
output from IC102 is used as the sweep pulse for the elec-
tronic shutter.

4. IC931 (H Driver, CDS, AGC and A/D converter)
IC931 contains the functions of H driver, CDS, AGC and A/D
converter. As horizontal clock driver for CCD image sensor,
HØ1, HØ2, HØL and RG are generated inside, and output to
CCD.
The video signal which is output from the CCD is input to pin
(1) and pin (74) of IC931. There are sampling hold blocks
generated from the SHP and SHD pulses, and it is here that
CDS (correlated double sampling) is carried out.
After passing through the CDS circuit, the signal passes
through the AGC amplifier (VGA: Variable Gain Amplifier). It
is A/D converted internally into a 14-bit signal, and is then
input to MOVIC (IC102). The gain of the VGA amplifier is con-
trolled by pins (4), (5), (6), (69), (70) and (71) serial signal
which is output from ASIC (IC101).
