  • Pixel and method for controlling the same
    Patent number: 11736826
    Abstract: A pixel includes: a detection node; a first normally on transistor connected between the detection node and a rail for applying a first potential; and a second transistor whose gate is connected to the detection node. An image sensor includes a plurality of the pixels and a control circuit configured to apply, during for a phase of initializing the detection node, the first potential to the gate of the first transistor.
    Type: Grant

  • Image sensors with multi-channel type transistors
    Patent number: 11552116
    Abstract: A pixel includes a photodiode and first and second transistors, the first and second transistors being coupled in series. One of the first and second transistors is a P channel transistor and the other is an N channel transistor. An electronic device may include one or more of the pixels.
