Abstract
The driver circuit for a two-dimensional, CCD image sensor provides a pulse elimination period before the start of each field shift. During this elimination period, the operation of transmission registers is stopped so that the amplitude of a signal component used for even field shifting substantially matches the amplitude of another signal component used for odd field shifting, such that, as a result, the output signal of the image sensor is free of flickering.
