An Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is an indispensable part of image sensor systems. This paper presents a silicon-based 13-bit 100 kS/s two-step single-slope analog-to-digital converter (TS-SS ADC) for infrared image sensors with a frame rate of 1...
This paper proposes a dual-mode CMOS analog front-end (AFE) circuit for short-wave infrared (SWIR) image sensors, which integrates a hybrid readout circuit (ROIC) and a 12-bit two-step single-slope analog-to-digital converter (TS-SS ADC). The ROIC dy...
In this paper, a 120 frames per second (fps) low noise CMOS Image Sensor (CIS) based on a Two-Step Single Slope ADC (TS SS ADC) and column self-calibration technique is proposed. The TS SS ADC is suitable for high speed video systems because its conv...
For the application of a high-performance shortwave infrared (SWIR) detector, a fully integrated analog front-end (AFE) circuit is proposed in this paper, which includes a readout integrated circuit (ROIC) and a 12-bit/100 kHz two-step single-slope a...
In this paper, we present a multi-resolution mode CMOS image sensor (CIS) for intelligent surveillance system (ISS) applications. A low column fixed-pattern noise (CFPN) comparator is proposed in 8-bit two-step single-slope analog-to-digital converte...
