Abstract

A charge coupled device is controlled to conserve energy during charge transfer. By connecting the storage electrode corresponding to the substrate region in which a charge packet is stored to an adjacent electrode, the potential at the storage electrode is reduced and the potential on the adjacent electrode is increased to a level where charge transfer is initiated to transfer a portion of the charge packet to the substrate region corresponding to the next adjacent storage electrode.
