CMOS Active Pixel Image Sensor
This paper addresses the development of a micropower 176 144 CMOS active pixel image sensor that dissipates one to two orders of magnitude less power than current state-of-the-art CMOS image sensors. The chip operates from a 1.5-V voltage source and the power consumption measured for the chip running from an internal 25.2-MHz clock yielding 30 frames per second is about 550 W. This amount enabl...
متن کاملLinear-Logarithmic CMOS Image Sensor with Reduced FPN Using Photogate and Cascode MOSFET
We propose a linear-logarithmic CMOS image sensor with reduced fixed pattern noise (FPN). The proposed linear-logarithmic pixel based on a conventional 3-transistor active pixel sensor (APS) structure has additional circuits in which a photogate and a cascade MOSFET are integrated with the pixel structure in conjunction with the photodiode. To improve FPN, we applied the PMOSFET hard reset meth...
متن کاملCmos Active Pixel Image Sensor with Combined Linear and Logarithmic Mode Operation
An active photodiode 4 x 64 image sensor array was designed and fabricated using a 0.5 μm CMOS process. The sensor includes on-chip timing and control as well as correlated double sampling for readout. The operation of the sensor is selectable between a linear integration mode and a logarithmic mode using the same array of pixels. INTRODUCTION In recent years, CMOS image sensors have generated ...
متن کاملA Wide Dynamic Range CMOS Digital Pixel Sensor
A CMOS image sensor with pixel level analog to digital conversion is presented. Each 13.8μm x 13.8μm pixel area contains a photodiode and a dynamic comparator using the maximum voltage swing available (0V 1.8V). The comparator does not need any bias current and is insensitive to fabrication process variations. Also a digital to analog converter (DAC) is used to deliver a voltage reference in or...
متن کاملLogarithmic Image Sensor for Wide Dynamic Range Stereo Vision System
Stereo vision is the most universal way to get 3D information passively. The fast progress of digital image processing hardware makes this computation approach realizable now. It is well known that stereo vision matches 2 or more images of a scene, taken by image sensors from different points of view. Any information loss, even partially in those images, will drastically reduce the precision an...
