Comparison device and CMOS image sensor including the same
Abstract:
Provided are a comparison device that may minimize an influence of banding noise by offsetting the banding noise, and a CMOS image sensor including the comparison device. The comparison device may include a comparison circuit configured to compare a pixel signal and a ramp signal with each other and output a comparison signal, a banding noise adjustment circuit coupled to the comparison circuit to adjust electrical characteristic values of the comparison circuit, a banding value generation circuit coupled to the banding noise adjustment circuit to provide the banding noise adjustment circuit with a banding value generated based on a setting code value, and a banding noise reduction circuit coupled to the banding noise adjustment circuit and configured to reduce the banding noise of the comparison circuit by adjusting electrical characteristic values of the comparison circuit.
