MULTICHANNEL INTEGRATED ELECTRO-OPTICAL CONVERSION UNIT Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC G03B37/00 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: multichannel integrated electro-optical conversion unit has a focal plane unit on which there are two rows of photosensitive CCD arrays arranged in checkered order and electrically connected to clock power cells mounted on two sides of a frame, cells for analogue-to-digital processing packaging video signals, whose inputs are connected to the register outputs of the photosensitive CCD arrays, and main and backup cells for controlling the unit. The main and backup cells for controlling the unit lie on opposite sides of the frame with mutual overlapping and are electrically connected in the central area of the frame.

EFFECT: cutting the length and number of inter-cell connections.
