Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor Readout Integrated Circuit for Imaging Applications
Abstract: In this paper presents a novel continuous-time simultaneous-readout scheme for active imaging systems based on orthogonal modulation of photo detector signals. The superimposed-continuous-time approach presented here differs from the conventional scheduled-discrete-time scheme in that the photo detector signals are summed in a common bus concurrently and then converted to voltage levels for digitization. We illustrate that our proposed architecture may be profitable. Predominantly, in solicitations, the bandwidth necessities for a …
