Suppression of noise in pixel VDD supply
摘要:
A circuit and method for correcting for power supply voltage noise using two dummy pixels in each row of pixels of an imager having a number of pixels arranged in rows and columns are described. The dummy pixels are driven by the same power supply as the active pixels but do not have the capability to sense light energy. The first dummy pixel is read at the time the active pixels in a row are reset and stores a signal in a first dummy register related to the voltage level of the power supply at the time the active pixels are reset. The second dummy pixel is read at the time the active pixels in the row are read and stores a signal in a second dummy register related to the voltage level of the power supply at the time the active pixels are read. The signals in the first storage register and second storage register can then be used to correct the signals from the active pixels in the row for the effect of noise caused by power supply voltage level fluctuations.
