CCD (Charged Coupled Device) This scanning method uses florescent light to reflect
images off scanned documents and toward an array of photoelectric cells called the
charge coupled device which converts the light and dark portions of the page into
electronic code. CCD scanners must reduce a page size image to fit a CCD array
the size of a postage stamp. To do this, a complex light path consisting of lens and
mirrors is employed.
