It looks like the original forum is still active, and meanwhile they have several cameras using different chips (also CMOS). Here is the link

 

I have built a cam86 using a D70 sensor, it works fine but I think it is a bit too difficult to operate reliably (cooling in particular).

Hello,

 

is it possible too use a D100 ccd sensor?

Hello,

 

is it possible too use a D100 ccd sensor?

Not sure, at first glance this appears it might use the same sensor as a Nikon D40/D50/D70/D70s but have not been able to confirm via Google yet.  Number of pixels and size seem to be the same so would not be surprised if they are indeed the same.   HOWEVER, https://www.cloudyni...mera/?p=6829922 implies that the D100 is a different chip.

Hello,

 

I'm estimating the possibility of building an astro camera on ICX453 using digital CDS approach.

 

Does anybody have timing diagrams for the sensor?

 

In particular, I'm interested in proper controlling levels on V1, V3;

I'm confused by (seeming) too short V1 low impulse.

 

Thanks in advance.

See http://astroccd.org/ especially, http://astroccd.org/2016/10/cam86/  and http://astroccd.org/2015/04/cam84/ and also check out https://github.com/v...o/CAM8_software

 

But I assume you already found these.

 

P.S. Google Chrome's Translate allows me to attempt to read the astroccd site.
