Charge-coupled devices (CCDs) have been the most common visible and nearultraviolet imaging sensors in astronomy since the 1980s. Almost all major astronomical instrumentation utilizes CCD imagers for both scientific observations and the more routine tasks such as telescope guiding. In this short review, we provide a brief history of CCDs in astron...
