Low-power readout circuit for quanta image sensors
Introduction: The ‘quanta image sensor (QIS)’ is being explored as a possible next-generation solid-state imaging technology to address issues with ‘sub-diffraction-limit (SDL)’ pixel sizes in the ‘CMOS image sensor (CIS)’ [1–3]. In the QIS concept, individual photoelectrons are counted by specialised SDL pixels termed ‘jots’, and the output of each jot is binary in nature. In addition to spati...
متن کامل1T Pixel Using Floating-Body MOSFET for CMOS Image Sensors
We present a single-transistor pixel for CMOS image sensors (CIS). It is a floating-body MOSFET structure, which is used as photo-sensing device and source-follower transistor, and can be controlled to store and evacuate charges. Our investigation into this 1T pixel structure includes modeling to obtain analytical description of conversion gain. Model validation has been done by comparing theor...
متن کاملExtremely small differential non-linearity in a DMOS capacitor based cyclic ADC for CMOS image sensors
This letter reports an extremely small differential non-linearity (DNL) in a cyclic analog-to-digital converter (ADC) using depletion-mode MOS (DMOS) capacitors for CMOS image sensors (CISs). Compared with conventional 1.5b digital-to-analog converter (DAC) configuration using 3 reference signals, the cyclic ADC with split sampling DMOS capacitors in the 1.5b DAC has the maximum DNL of +0.125/-...
متن کاملNeural Monitoring With CMOS Image Sensors
Implantable image sensors have several biomedical applications due to their miniature size, light weight, and low power consumption achieved through sub-micron standard CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) technologies. The main applications are in specific cell labeling, neural activity detection, and biomedical imaging. In this paper the recent research studies on implantable CMOS i...
متن کاملA Low-Voltage, Low-Power, Two-Stage Amplifier for Switched-Capacitor Applications in 90 nm CMOS Process
Abstract- A novel low-voltage two-stage operational amplifier employing resistive biasing is presented. This amplifier implements neutralization and correction common mode stability in second stage while employs capacitive dc level shifter and coupling between two stages. The structure reduces the power consumption and increases output voltage swing. The compensation is performed by simple mill...
