General Description

The PI331MC-DR is a contact image sensor, CIS, module with an additional on board

circuit that digitizes the analog pixels from the CIS image sensor to a “background-

tracking”, two-level digital output signals. It is based on CIS module, the PI305M-A6

manufactured by PIC, but with a shorter read length of 89 mm. Hence, its performance is

equivalent to the PI305M-A6 that uses MOS image sensor technology to gains its high-

speed performance and high sensitivity. The PI331MC-DR is suitable for scanning

documents with width of 89 mm and with resolution of 11.8 dots per millimeter. Its has a

broad applications, but specially designed for the following areas:

• Where data compression is required, such as in data transmissions.
