interline transfer (IT)

interline transfer (IT)

In IT CCD technology, the charges on exposed pixels are transferred to light-shielded vertical readout zones embedded in the sensitive area. IT devices are simpler to manufacture and are therefore less costly than FT or FIT devices. Mostly used in industrial and consumer cameras.
