Image sensor assembly

摘要

A compact image sensor package for use in an endoscope or borescope in which a lens system, a solid state image sensor and a circuit board are mounted in tandem within a cylindrical sealed housing. The assembly is positioned within the viewing head of the instrument so that an image of a given target is recorded on the sensor and an electrical output signal indicative of the image data is transmitted out of the package via either an optical or electrical transmission line.
