	Do you mean besides NEC ? NEC publishes info on the chip WITH circuit
examples. Basically all clocks to the chip are 0 to 12.0 volt control 
signals - two phase. [You can use DH0026 level converters to convert from TTL 
to the correct clock levels.] Supply voltage for the device is 12.0V. As far 
as theory goes I would suggest getting a TI, Fairchild or Thompson CCD data 
book - they have good overviews of CCD operation...
