Abstract :
In this paper we concentrate on large format CCD Image Sensors of a million or more pixels. We review the state of the art of mega sensors and also highlight the present challenges and technical issues. The second part of our paper deals with our development of a 25.4 Mega pixel CCD image sensor with forward motion compensation. We describe the architecture, deal with yield issues and also give experimental results on images with forward motion compensation.<>
