There is always some market for form & function substitutes to keep older product lines alive and avoid retooling. Still, surprisingly large valuation. Wonder where they are going?Eric R Fossumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09413387887974939684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-48050330423947303372021-01-18T22:35:31.214+02:002021-01-18T22:35:31.214+02:00My understanding is that $207M is the funds that t...My understanding is that $207M is the funds that they intend to raise in the IPO, while their company valuation is higher than that.<br /><br />As for the MCCD, initially they positioned it as a substitute for phased out CCDs in security cameras. I think it's just a regular CMOS sensor inside with external interface mimicking CCD and its controller chip.<br /><br />https://image-sensors-world.blogspot.com/2014/01/brigates-announces-mccd-sensors-for.htmlVladimir Koifmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01800020176563544699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-90466700853763209602021-01-18T22:21:22.219+02:002021-01-18T22:21:22.219+02:00I guess MCCD is their bucket brigade device using ...I guess MCCD is their bucket brigade device using CMOS, and I guess ECCD is embedded CCD. I am just wondering where these devices are finding success in the market place? The only one I can imagine, if it is a real CCD, is TDI imaging. But perhaps there are more. US$207M valuation is a pretty big number. Eric R Fossumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09413387887974939684noreply@blogger.com
