Charge-coupled device

Charge-coupled device (CCD) is a technology used to build light-sensitive electronic devices such as digital cameras and image scanners. CCDs can be made to detect either individual colors (such as RGB) or grayscale ranges. Each CCD chip consists of an array of light-sensitive s. The photocell is sensitized by giving it an electrical charge prior to exposure.. 2006-04-29.
