DEFINITION

Classification: 257/241

Multiple channels (e.g., converging or diverging or parallel channels):

(under subclass 215) Subject matter wherein the charge transfer device contains more than one channel for charge transfer path.

(1) Note. The channels may converge or diverge, i.e., they are not parallel to each other, but change direction either toward or away from each other along their length.

(2) Note. In such devices, the charge transfer path may lie in two different (e.g., orthogonal) directions.

(3) Note. The device may include two or more parallel channels (e.g., serial- parallel-serial) wherein the charge transfer takes place in different directions, but the device includes charge transfer paths that are parallel to each other.
