Programmable multiresolution CMOS active pixel sensor

چکیده
CMOS active pixel sensors (APS) allow the flexibility of placing signal processing circuitry on the imaging focal plane. The multiresolution CMOS APS can perform block averaging on-chip to eliminate the off-chip software intensive image processing. This 128 x 128 APS array can be read out at any user-defined resolution by configuring a set of digital shift registers. The full resolution frame rate is 30 Hz with higher rates for all other image resolutions.

A differential mode CMOS active pixel sensor (APS) was designed, fabricated, and tested as part of an optically programmable gate array (OPGA). It was used as a download link between a programmable gate array (PGA) and an optical (holographic) memory, which holds the PGA’s configuration data. A differential light encoding scheme was chosen for representing one-bit data to reduce the bit error r...
