There is a large selection MPW services, if you want to make an analog bucket brigade device, it could cost as little as 500$ for a small batch of chips. https

One might be able to hack a linear ccd into a bucket brigade device by using an LED to modulate a signal into the array.
You should design a programmable 2d transfer matrix with summing, it could do some cool analog processing, like a 2d bucket brigade with arbitrary flow.
Stay happy friend.

The only service that doesn't require an NDA instead has all these weirdly crippling requirements that no other MPW has: the bloated mandatory SoC, RTL2GDS, no direct access to the pads, etc. It's really sad. They fixed the one big huge problem with the state of MPWs, and then obviously said to themselves "hey, we did too good of a job here, lets crap this up a whole bunch to counteract that."
