A Low Power Dual CDS for a Column-Parallel CMOS Image Sensor
In this paper, a 320 × 240 pixel, 80 frame/s CMOS image sensor with a low power dual correlated double sampling (CDS) scheme is presented. A novel 8-bit hold-and-go counter in each column is proposed to obtain 10-bit resolution. Furthermore, dual CDS and a configurable counter scheme are also discussed to realize efficient power reduction. With these techniques, the digital counter consumes at ...
متن کاملPTC Inspired Column Level Compression in Low Power CMOS Imagers
The overall power consumption of CMOS imagers is dominated by the communication layer. A number of compression techniques have been introduced in the processing layer to reduce the power consumption of the communication layer. These compression techniques use redundancy present in the spatial or temporal domain. This work presents an algorithm to compress the depth of the pixel in the digital d...
متن کاملRefractive Dual Band Infrared Imager Optical Design
Infrared imagers are important for reorganization and monitoring. This paper discusses the design of an infrared imager. Optical design in medium wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long wavelength infrared (LWIR) bands is different and needs distinct detectors and materials. Reflective systems are not suitable due to their small field of view (FOV) and vignetting. Refractive dual band optical syste...
متن کاملA Four Gain Readout Integrated Circuit
The main difficulty for the readout electronics of the ATLAS LARG calorimeter is to handle the 16 bit dynamic range without spoiling the signal to noise ratio. A possible way out is to split the input signal in four « ranges » with different gains and to select the most appropriate. Then, each subrange only requires 10 bits, a much more manageable number. A four gain shaper circuit has been suc...
متن کاملAnalysis of Active Pixel Sensor Readout Circuit
This brief provides a detailed analysis of active pixel sensor, pixel and column circuit. Surprisingly, we find that shorter readout times can be achieved by reducing the bias current and hence reducing energy consumption. We investigate the effect of nonidealities on the readout operation. We find that when the follower transistor channel-length modulation is taken into consideration, delay is...
