PRODUCT SUMMARY 
KODAK KAF-6303E IMAGE SENSOR 
3072 (H) X 2048 (V) FULL FRAME CCD IMAGE SENSOR 
DESCRIPTION 
The KAF-6303E is a high performance monochrome area 
CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor with 3072H x 
2048V photo active pixels designed for a wide range of 
image sensing applications in the 0.3 nm to 1.0 nm 
wavelength band. Typical applications include military, 
scientific, and industrial imaging. A 74dB dynamic range 
is possible operating at room temperature. 
The sensor is built with a true two-phase CCD 
technology. This technology simplifies the support 
circuits that drive the sensor and reduces the dark  
current without compromising charge capacity. The 
transparent gate results in spectral response increased 
ten times at 400nm, co 
standard polysilico
mpared to a front side illuminated 
n gate technology. The sensitivity is 
increased 50% over the rest of the visible wavelengths.  
Total chip size is 29.0 mm x 19.1 mm and is housed in a 
26-pin, 0.88” wide DIL ceramic package with 0.1” pin 
spacing.
