CMOS Active Pixel Sensor (APS) Technology for Multimedia Image Capture
نویسنده
چکیده
CMOS active pixel sensor (APS) technology has been developed as a potential replacement for charge-coupled devices (CCDs) for solid-state imaging. The CMOS APS has several advantages over CCDs for camera systems including much lower camera power, smaller camera size, lower camera cost, and on-chip functionality. This paper describes the CMOS APS technology.
