Abstract:
A CMOS image sensor includes a pixel array including a plurality of unit pixels with individual rows of unit pixels being coupled to respective row control signal lines, and a buffer including plural row control signal drivers. Each driver is coupled to a respective one of the row control signal lines and is configured to provide a row control signal pulse to a respective row control signal line in response to an input pulse when the row control signal line is in an active state and to bias the row control signal line at a ground voltage when the respective row control signal line is in an inactive state. Each driver has a first drive capability when the row control signal line is in the active state and a second drive capability greater than the first drive capability when the row control signal line is in an inactive state.
