Abstract: Readout integrated circuits (ROICs) for multi-band imagers, and related methods, are described. The ROICs may include multiple channels associated with the detectors of a photodetector array, with the different channels corresponding to different wavelength bands detected by the detectors. The ROICs may utilize capacitive transimpedance amplifier (CTIA) technology, and may implement time division multiplexing techniques.

Abstract: The present application relates to imagers having variable gain and related structures and methods. The gain of the imager may vary between rows of the imager. Such variability may be achieved by suitable design of a readout integrated circuit (ROIC). The ROIC may provide different integration period durations for different rows of the imager. Different integration capacitances may be provided for pixels of different rows of the imager. The gain of a column buffer may be varied when operating on output signals of pixels from different rows.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cost-effective and power-effective solution to a high performance amplifier design over conventional Class A and Class B/AB amplifiers. Without increasing cost or losing simplification of conventional Class B/AB amplifier configuration, two kinds of unique local feedback loops, which cover the second and third stages and further offer a feedback shifting feature over frequency range, are disclosed to replace the traditional Miller compensation capacitor to suppress dominant distortion, which is usually generated by the two last stages while maintaining stability of the amplifier, through high frequency end.

Abstract: A solid stage audio power amplifier comprises of two output stages with one generating the real output signal that drives the real loud speaker load and the other mimicking the real output stage and generating a dummy output signal that drives a dummy resistor load. A frequency dependent feedback selection network, denoted as Feedback-Shifting network hereafter, is implemented between the two outputs and the input of the amplifier to fulfill a unique global feedback loop. In a particular embodiment, the Feedback-Shifting network can be constructed so that it receives more feedback information from the real output node than from the dummy output node at low frequencies, but less feedback information from the real output node than from the dummy output node at mid to high frequency bands.
