  • A wide dynamic range CMOS image sensor with Multiple Exposure-time signal outputs and 12-bit column-parallel cyclic A/D converters
    IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, 2005
    Co-Authors: Mitsuhito Mase, Masaaki Sasaki, Yasuo Wakamori, Shoji Kawahito, Masanori Furuta
    Abstract:

    A wide dynamic range CMOS image sensor with a burst readout Multiple Exposure method is proposed. In this method, maximally four different Exposure-time signals are read out in one frame. To achieve the high-speed readout, a compact cyclic analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with noise canceling function is proposed and arrays of the cyclic ADCs are integrated at the column. A prototype wide dynamic range CMOS image sensor has been developed with 0.25-μm 1-poly 4-metal CMOS image sensor technology. The dynamic range is expanded maximally by a factor of 1791 compared to the case of single Exposure. The dynamic range is measured to be 19.8 bit or 119 dB. The 12-bit ADC integrated at the column of the CMOS image sensor has DNL of +0.2/-0.8 LSB.

  • a 142db dynamic range cmos image sensor with Multiple Exposure time signals
    Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference, 2005
    Co-Authors: Jongho Park, Masaaki Sasaki, Yasuo Wakamori, Mitsuhito Mase, Shoji Kawahito, Yukihiro Ohta
    Abstract:

    An ultra wide dynamic range image sensor with a linear response is presented. The proposed extremely short accumulation (ESA) signal readout technique enables the dynamic range of image sensor to be expanded up to 142dB. Including the ESA signals, total of 4 different accumulation time signals are read out in one frame based on burst readout mode. To achieve the high-speed readout required for the Multiple Exposure signals, column parallel A/D converters are integrated at the upper and lower sides of pixel array. The improved column parallel cyclic 12-b ADC with a built-in CDS circuit has the differential non-linearity of plusmn0.3LSB
