Abstract
A charge transfer device having a charge transfer portion in which a plurality of electrode pairs are formed above a transfer channel, with the plurality of electrode pairs commonly wired forming N (where N=2, 3, 4, . . . natural numbers) bits of the charge transfer portion bits so that electrode pairs of each half bit can be independently driven at every N bits, inputting the electrode pairs of each half bit with the same drive pulse to operate it by a two-phase complementary drive in a normal operation, and in an N-time speed operation, inputting the electrode pairs of N bits with N pairs of complementary drive pulses to operate them by a 2N-phase complementary drive.
