  • Patent number: 11936998
    Abstract: In one example, an apparatus comprises: a photodiode configured to generate a charge in response to light within an exposure period, a charge sensing unit configured to accumulate at least a part of the charge as an overflow charge, a quantizer, and a controller configured to: within a first time within the exposure period, control the quantizer to perform a first quantization operation to quantize the overflow charge accumulated at the charge sensing unit to generate a first measurement output; within a second time after the first time, and within the exposure period, control the quantizer to perform a second quantization operation to quantize the overflow charge accumulated at the charge sensing unit to generate a second measurement output; and generate a digital output to represent an intensity of the light based on at least one of the first measurement output or the second measurement output.

  • Publication number: 20240030927
    Abstract: A phase locked loop (PLL) includes a phase detector configured to receive a reference signal and a feedback signal, wherein the reference signal has a reference frequency, sample the feedback signal, and output a phase detection signal indicative of a phase of the feedback signal. A voltage controlled oscillator is configured to generate an output signal based on the phase detection signal. The output signal has an output frequency greater than the reference frequency.
