General Description

The PI324MC-A4 is a CIS module. It is a dual-analog-output contact image sensor, using

MOS image sensor technology for high-speed performance and high sensitivity. The

PI324MC-A4 is suitable for scanning A4 size (216 mm) documents with 11.8 dots per

millimeter resolution. Applications includes fax machines, game systems, variety of mark

readers, and other automation equipment requiring document scanners.

Functional Description

The PI324MC-A4 imaging array consists of 27 sensors, PI3021 produced by Peripheral

Imaging Corp. The sensor is a monolithic chip with an array of 96 photo sensing elements,

of which 27 are cascaded to provide 2592 photo-detectors. Additionally, these chips gives

the users the readout flexibility in selecting their desired data format. These cascaded

chips are segregated into two electrically independent sections of 13 chips and 14 chips,
