A 0.5μm Pixel Frame-Transfer CCD Image Sensor in 110nm CMOS
The first image sensor with submicron pixel pitch is reported. Test structures comprising 16× 16 pixel Full-Frame-Transfer (FFT) CCDs with 0.5μm pixels are fabricated in a single-poly 110nm CMOS process. Characterization results demonstrate charge transfer efficiency of 99.9%, QE of 48% at 550nm, conversion gain of 193μV/e-, well capacity of 3550e-, dark current of 50e-/sec with nonuniformity o...
متن کاملA Fast Multiple Sampling Method for Low-Noise CMOS Image Sensors With Column-Parallel 12-bit SAR ADCs
This paper presents a fast multiple sampling method for low-noise CMOS image sensor (CIS) applications with column-parallel successive approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs). The 12-bit SAR ADC using the proposed multiple sampling method decreases the A/D conversion time by repeatedly converting a pixel output to 4-bit after the first 12-bit A/D conversion, reducing nois...
متن کاملProgress in voltage and current mode on-chip analog-to-digital converters for CMOS image sensors
Two 8 bit successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designs and a 12 bit current mode incremental sigma delta (Z-L) ADC have been designed, fabricated, and tested. The successive approximation test chip designs are compatible with active pixel sensor (APS) column parallel architectures with a 20.4 j.tm pitch in a 1.2 m n-well CMOS process and a 40 tm pitch in a 2 j.tm n-well CM...
متن کاملHigh Sensitivity Color CMOS Image Sensor with WRGB Color Filter Array and Color Separation Process Using Edge Detection
We have developed a CMOS image sensor with a novel color filter array (CFA) where one of the green pixels of the Bayer pattern was replaced with a white pixel. A transparent layer has been fabricated on the white pixel instead of a color filter to realize over 95% transmission for visible light with wavelengths of 400-700 nm. Pixel pitch of the device was 3.3 um and the number of pixels was 2 m...
متن کاملCMOS Image Sensor Architecture for Primal-Dual Coding
A CMOS image sensor architecture for primal-dual coding (PDC), the developed image sensor and the sensing side of the system, as well as preliminary sensor test results are presented in this paper. The architecture proposed in this work uses pixels with the embedded 2-bit latches which are responsible for the pre-loading and storing of the exposure codes. The subsequent exposure code (mask) can...
