Description
The TSL202 linear sensor array consists of two sections of 64 photodiodes and associated charge amplifier
circuitry. The pixels measure 120
m (H) by 70
m (W) with 125-
m center-to-center spacing and 55-
m
spacing between pixels. Operation is simplified by internal control logic that requires only a serial-input (SI)
signal and a clock.
The TSL202 is intended for use in a wide variety of applications including mark detection and code reading,
optical character recognition (OCR) and contact imaging, edge detection and positioning as well as optical linear
and rotary encoding. The TSL202 is pin­compatible with the Texas Instruments TSL215.

Detailed Description (assumes serial connection)
The sensor consists of 128 photodiodes arranged in a linear array. Light energy impinging on a photodiode
generates photocurrent, which is integrated by the active integration circuitry associated with that pixel. During
the integration period, a sampling capacitor connects to the output of the integrator through an analog switch.
The amount of charge accumulated at each pixel is directly proportional to the light intensity and the integration
time. The integration time is the interval between two consecutive output periods.
The output and reset of the integrators is controlled by a 128-bit shift register and reset logic. An output cycle
is initiated by clocking in a logic 1 on SI for one positive going clock edge (see Figures 1 and 2). As the SI pulse
is clocked through the 128-bit shift register, the charge on the sampling capacitor of each pixel is sequentially
connected to a charge-coupled output amplifier that generates a voltage output AO. When the bit position goes
low the pixel integrator is reset. On the 129th clock rising edge, the SI pulse is clocked out of the shift register
and the output assumes a high impedance state. Note that this 129th clock pulse is required to terminate the
output of the 128th pixel and return the internal logic to a known state. A subsequent SI pulse can be presented
on the 130th clock pulse, thereby initiating another pixel output cycle.
The voltage developed at analog output (AO) is given by:
Vout = KEt
where:
Vout is the output voltage
K is the device responsivity for a given wavelength of light given
in V/(
J/cm
2
)
E is the intensity of light at each pixel given in
W/cm
2
t is integration time in seconds
AO is driven by a source follower that requires an external pulldown resistor (330 ohms typ.). The source
follower configuration permits an analog wired OR hookup of multiple devices. When the device is not in the
output phase, AO is in a high impedance state. The output is nominally 0 volts for no light and 2 volts for a
nominal white level output, with a nominal full-scale (saturation) voltage of 2.5V.
The TSL202 can be connected in the serial mode, in which 128 clocks are required to read out all the pixels,
or in the parallel mode in which 64 clocks are required to read out all pixels (see application section).

NOTES: 2. Clock duty cycle is assumed to be 50%.
3. PRNU is the maximum difference between the voltage from any single pixel and the average output voltage from all pixels of the
device under test when the array is uniformly illuminated.
4. Nonlinearity is defined as the maximum deviation from a best-fit straight line over the dark-to-white irradiance levels, as a percent
of analog output voltage (white).
5. RMS noise is the standard deviation of a single-pixel output under constant illumination as observed over a 5-second period.
6. Saturation exposure is calculated using the maximum responsivity and minimum output saturation voltage figures.
7. DNSU is the difference between the maximum and minimum of dark-current voltage.
8. Image lag is a residual signal left in a pixel from a previous exposure. It is defined as a percent of white-level signal remaining after
a pixel is exposed to a white condition followed by a dark condition:
