Abstract: A SAR ADC and an electronic device are disclosed. The SAR ADC includes a read clock generation circuit, configured to connect to a first output terminal and a second output terminal of a dynamic comparator, and generate a read clock signal for reading a first or a second comparison result based on the first and the second comparison result received from the dynamic comparator. The invention reads the comparison result using the read clock signal generated by grabbing the output of the comparator, and can improve the overall analog-to-digital conversion speed of the SAR ADC. Further, the present invention can detect the occurrence of metastable state of the comparator by judging that the output of the comparator has no pulse, and read the comparison result based on the backup clock generated by the operating clock of the comparator.

Abstract: A charge source circuit, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) touch panel are disclosed. The charge source circuit includes a reference current generation block, a current mirror block and a charge output block. The charge output block is configured to provide an amount of charge as current times time, rather than voltage times capacitance as conventionally done. This dispenses with the use of a voltage division technique, a drive operational amplifier or a great number of capacitors, resulting in circuit simplicity, reduced cost and circuit layout area savings. Moreover, current and time interval sequences can be designed to enable, with a very small area and voltage, continuous adjustability of the amount of charge within a desired range at a higher resolution. An equivalent capacitance corresponding to the amount of charge can be adjusted within a range from tens to hundreds of pF.

Abstract: An image sensor includes an image sensor pixel array having pixels. Each pixel includes a continuous active region having a first portion and a second portion extending from the first portion. A photodiode, a reset transistor, a drive transistor, and a select transistor are formed in and over the first portion. The photodiode and the reset transistor define a floating diffusion region therebetween. A switch transistor is formed in and over the second portion and includes a first source/drain region and a second source/drain region. The first source/drain region is included in the floating diffusion region. The second source/drain region interfaces a doped region formed in the second region. The pixel also includes a gate structure disposed directly over the doped region. By controlling the switch transistor, the pixel may operate in a high conversion gain mode or a low conversion gain mode to accommodate different illumination or exposure conditions.
