S7361 is a family of FFT-CCD image sensors specifically designed for X-ray imaging. FOS (Fiber Optic plate with Scintillator) that converts X-ray
into visible-light is mounted on a CCD chip, which enables S7361 to do the X-ray imaging.
High performance (resolution & contrast) X-ray imaging is to be realized by using S7361, which allows remarkable reduction with a conventional
X-ray film method.
A trigger signal of controller is to be constituted by using signal, which is detected at X-ray exposure to S7361, as a monitor PD is integrated in a
CCD chip.
S7361 has an effective pixel size of 48 × 48 µm and is available in active area of 28.8 (H) × 19.2 (V) mm

Precautions for use (Electrostatic countermeasures)
*Handle these sensors with bare hands or wearing cotton gloves. In addition, wear anti-static clothing or use a wrist band with
an earth ring, in order to prevent electrostatic damage due to electrical charges from friction.
*Avoid directly placing these sensors on a work-desk or work-bench that may carry an electrostatic charge.
*Provide ground lines or ground connection with the work-floor, work-desk and work-bench to allow static electricity to dis-
charge.
*Ground the tools used to handle these sensors, such as tweezers and soldering irons.
It is not always necessary to provide all the electrostatic measures stated above. Implement these measures according to
the amount of damage that occurs.
