  • Patent number: 9264633
    Abstract: An image sensor includes a light-electron conversion unit, a signal generation unit, and a selection unit. The light-electron conversion unit generates photo-charges from incident light. The signal generation unit accumulates photo-charges from the converter in a storage node during a detection period, and then generates a first analog signal and a second analog signal during an output period. The analog signals are generated based on an amount of photo-charges accumulated in the storage node. The selection unit generates an image signal based on one of the first analog signal and the second analog signal.

  • Patent number: 7816972
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a multiplexer circuit. The multiplexer circuit includes a first differential output unit, a second differential output unit, and a selection unit. The first differential output unit receives NRZ input signals (D1 and D1) and a clock signal (CLK), and generates differential RZ-mode outputs (R1 and R1). The second differential output unit receives NRZ input signals (D2 and D2) and an inverted clock signal ( CLK), and generates differential RZ-mode outputs (R2 and R2). The selection unit receives the RZ-mode output signals (R1, R1, R2, and R2) generated at the first differential output unit and the second differential output unit, and generates NRZ mode outputs in each half cycle of the clock signal (CLK).

  • Patent number: 7781719
    Abstract: A new photogate pixel structure for high performance CMOS Image Sensors is proposed. A new photogate structure is incorporated into the photodiode active-pixel structure. The proposed pixel structure exhibits the dynamic integration capacitance characteristics, which can be controlled by varying the control-voltage at the photogate node. Since the sensitivity is inversely proportional to the integration capacitance, the dynamic integration capacitance characteristics can provide the new functionality and controllability for high sensitivity and high dynamic range. At a low voltage level of the photogate, the pixel sensitivity of the new photogate pixel structure is maximized due to the minimum value of the integration capacitance. At a high voltage of the photogate, the dynamic range of the new structure can be maximized due to the increased well capacity. In addition, at an optimum bias voltage of the photogate, both the dynamic-range and the sensitivity can be simultaneously improved.

  • Patent number: 7741880
    Abstract: A data receiver and a data receiving method in which the data receiver generates two comparison signals based on amplitude modulated differential input signals, amplifies the comparison signals, compares amplified signals, and outputs logic operation results based on the amplitude modulated differential input signals and the comparison signals, thereby detecting data bits. Accordingly, the number of necessary amplifiers and comparators is reduced and a separate reference voltage generator is not needed, so that chip size reduction and low-power operation is accomplished.
