  • Windowed sequencing
    Patent number: 11028438
    Abstract: In one implementation, a method is described. The method includes determining an operational characteristic of sensors of a sensor array. The method further includes selecting a group of sensors in the array based on the operational characteristic of sensors in the group. The method further includes enabling readout of the sensors in the selected group. The method further includes receiving output signals from the enabled sensors.
    Type: Grant

  • Method for reducing dark current for an array of active pixel sensor cells
    Patent number: 7053354
    Abstract: An array of active pixel sensor cells is operated to substantially reduce the gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) current component of the dark current. In addition, the array is tested to determine the number of cells in the array that are bad, and discards the array of active pixel sensor cells when the number of bad cells exceeds a predefined limit.
