چکیده
CMOS image sensors are a second-generation solid state imaging technology. CMOS active pixel sensors have performance competitive with CCD technology, and offer advantages in on-chip functionality, system power reduction, cost and miniaturization. CMOS VLSI circuits for imaging and readout, and on-chip integration of ADC and smart functions will be addressed.

New Method for Analysis of image sensor to produce and evaluate the image
In this paper, a new method for evaluating CMOS image sensors based on computer modeling and analysis is introduced. Image sensors are composed of different parts, each of which has a specific effect on image quality. Circuits of image sensors can be evaluated and analyzed using circuit simulators or theoretically, but these methods cannot help to produce the final image. In order to produce th...
متن کاملA 64 × 64 CMOS Image Sensor With On-Chip Moving Object Detection and Localization
This paper presents a 64×64 CMOS image sensor with on-chip moving object detection and localization capability. Pixel-level storage elements (capacitors) enable the sensor to simultaneously output two consecutive frames, with temporal differences digitalized into binary events by a global differentiator. An on-chip, hardware-implemented, clustering-based algorithm processes events on the fly an...
متن کاملیک راهکار جدید برای کاهش جریان نشتی در کلید های CMOS
CMOS switches are one of the main components of today's analog circuits. Among the many types of non-idealities that can affect the performance of the switch, its leakage current is of utmost importance. In order to reduce the leakage current or equally increase the OFF resistance of any switch, a novel technique is presented in this paper. The proposed technique employs the body effect to incr...
متن کاملPixel Level Processing — Why, What, and How?
Pixel level processing promises many significant advantages including high SNR, low power, and the ability to adapt image capture and processing to different environments by processing signals during integration. However, the severe limitation on pixel size has precluded its mainstream use. In this paper we argue that CMOS technology scaling will make pixel level processing increasingly popular...
متن کاملSignal Conditioning CMOS Circuits Integrated on Si (111) for Image-Recording Sensor of Neural Activity
An on-chip signal conditioning CMOS Integrated Circuit on Si (111) was fabricated for use in multi-point neural activity recording. The two-dimensional (2D) micro-Si probe array for neural activity recording sensor can be fabricated on the IC by Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth method. However, the circuit has to be fabricated on Si (111) wafer because micro-Si probe is grown perpendicularly onl...
