  • Patent number: 10194106
    Abstract: An image sensor includes a pixel array including a plurality of unit pixels in a matrix including rows and columns, a selection unit configured to select outputs of some of the columns of the pixel array and output selection output signals, and an analog-digital conversion block including a plurality of analog-digital conversion units corresponding to the columns of the pixel array. First ones of the plurality of analog-digital conversion units include analog-digital conversion blocks configured to convert the selection output signals and output digital data. When the first analog-digital conversion units convert the selection output signals, second ones of the plurality of analog-digital conversion units are turned off.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9961287
    Abstract: An image sensor includes a pixel array including a plurality of unit pixels in a matrix including rows and columns. The matrix being divided into a plurality of groups and each of the plurality of groups includes two or more different columns, a binning sampling unit configured to sample outputs of unit pixels in each of the plurality of groups and output binning sampling signals, and an analog-digital conversion block including first and second analog-digital conversion units corresponding to the columns. The first analog-digital conversion units convert the binning sampling signals. When the first analog-digital conversion units convert the binning sampling signals, the second analog-digital conversion units are turned off.

  • Publication number: 20120275593
    Abstract: An apparatus for performing a fault detection operation may include a first-coordinate computing unit receiving a first point and a second point in a binary finite field, the first and second points established based on a basic point within a given elliptic curve, each of the first and second points including a first coordinate value and a second coordinate value, the first-coordinate computing unit performing a first addition operation on the first point and the second point to compute a third coordinate value and a second-coordinate computing unit performing a second addition operation on the first and second points to compute a fourth coordinate value, the first and second addition operations computed based on at least one of a difference between the first coordinate values of the first and second points and a difference between the second coordinate values of the first and second points.
