Orbit’s 2.0µm CMOS/CCD process <strong>of</strong>fers this possibility to realize both CCD and<br />

CMOS structures. For our application it is not important to have the best CCD<br />

performance as <strong>with</strong> pure CCD processes. A 2.0µm process is, however, coarse<br />

compared to today’s CMOS processes (0.18µm), a clear indication that such a<br />

process will probably not be supported for much longer. With future sub-micron<br />

CMOS processes it will be possible to realize 1-poly surface channel CCDs <strong>with</strong><br />

sufficient transfer efficiency. This will open the door to the realization <strong>of</strong> further<br />

signal processing tasks already in the pixel, using both the CCD principle and<br />

CMOS circuitry, while maintaining reasonable fill factors.
