Abstract: A device operate by alternating between first and second phases of operation. The device includes a first transistor and a first circuit. The first circuit operates to: couple a first conduction terminal of the first transistor to an output node of the device and a second conduction terminal of the first transistor to a first node of application of a potential during each first phase; and couple the first terminal of the first transistor to a second node of application of a potential and the second conduction terminal of the first transistor to the output node during each second phase of operation.

Abstract: An integrated circuit chip includes a front face having an electrical connection pad. An overmolded encapsulation block encapsulates the integrated circuit chip and includes a front layer at least partially covering a front face of the integrated circuit chip. A through-hole the encapsulation block is located above the electrical connection pad of the integrated circuit chip. A wall of the through-hole is covered with an inner metal layer that is joined to the front pad of the integrated circuit chip. A front metal layer covers a local zone of the front face of the front layer, with the front metal layer being joined to the inner metal layer to form an electrical connection. The inner metal layer and the front metal layer are attached or anchored to activated additive particles that are included in the material of the encapsulation block.

Abstract: A global shutter pixel includes a first transistor and a first switch series-connected between a first node of application of a potential and an internal node of the pixel. A control terminal of the first transistor is coupled to a floating diffusion node of the pixel. At least two assemblies are coupled to the internal node, where each assembly is formed of a capacitor series-connected with a second switch coupling the capacitor to the internal node. A second transistor has a control terminal connected to the internal node and a first conduction terminal coupled to an output node of the pixel. The pixel operation is controlled to store an initialization voltage from the floating diffusion on one of the capacitors and a pixel integration voltage from the floating diffusion on another of the capacitors.
