Low Voltage Electron Multiplying CCD in a CMOS Process
Low light level and high-speed image sensors as required for space applications can suffer from a decrease in the signal to noise ratio (SNR) due to the photon-starved environment and limitations of the sensor’s readout noise. The SNR can be increased by the implementation of Time Delay Integration (TDI) as it allows photoelectrons from multiple exposures to be summed in the charge domain with ...
متن کاملRecent Enhancements to Interline and Electron Multiplying CCD Image Sensors †
This paper describes recent process modifications made to enhance the performance of interline and electron-multiplying charge-coupled-device (EMCCD) image sensors. By use of MeV ion implantation, quantum efficiency in the NIR region of the spectrum was increased by 2×, and image smear was reduced by 6 dB. By reducing the depth of the shallow photodiode (PD) implants, the photodiode-to-vertical...
متن کاملHigh resolution x-ray and -ray imaging using a scintillator-coupled electron-multiplying CCD
Over the last decade the rapid advancements in CCD technology have lead to significant developments in the field of low-light-level, Electron-Multiplying CCDs (EM-CCDs). The addition of a gain register before output allows signal electrons to be multiplied without increasing the external noise. This low effective readout noise, which can be reduced to the sub-electron level, allows very small s...
متن کاملA New Low-Voltage, Low-Power and High-Slew Rate CMOS Unity-Gain Buffer
Class-AB circuits, which are able to deal with currents several orders of magnitude larger than their quiescent current, are good candidates for low-power and high slew-rate analog design. This paper presents a novel topology of a class AB flipped voltage follower (FVF) that has better slew rate and the same power consumption as the conventional class-AB FVF buffer previously presented in liter...
متن کاملA High Gain Bipolar Pulse Generator with Low Voltage Input Source
This paper proposes a pulsed power generator which consists of two types of switched-capacitor booster modules. A doubling mode module employed to elevate the input voltage to a specified level and, constant mode module is used to increase the elevated voltage into the finally intended bipolar output voltage. Also, the proposed modular structure does not utilize any switches across the load. Ot...
