General Description

The PI224MC-A6 is a contact imaging sensor, CIS, module, which is composed of 13

PI3020 sensor chips. The PI3020 is a 200 DPI solid-state line imaging array, also a

product of Peripheral Imaging Corporation. This imaging device is fabricated using MOS

imaging sensor technology for high-speed performance and high sensitivity. The

PI224MC-A6 is suitable for scanning A6 size (104 mm) documents with 8 dots per

millimeter resolution. Applications include ticket, check and card scanners, variety of mark

readers, and other automation equipment.

Functional Description

The PI224MC-A6 imaging array consists of 13 sensors that are cascaded to provide 832

photo-detectors with their associated multiplex switches, and a digital shift register that

controls its sequential readout. Mounted in the module is one-to-one graded indexed

200DPI CIS Sensor
