摘要:
A pinned photodiode is operated without a transfer gate. This is done by forming a pinned photodiode which has a selective connection to the substrate. When the connection is turned on, the photodiode is pinned to the substrate, and kept at a specified potential. When the connection is off, the photodiode is disconnected from the substrate and hence floats. In this way, the area above the photoreceptor can be used both for a reception area and for a charge transfer area.

A lock in pinned photodiode photodetector includes a plurality of output ports which are sequentially enabled. Each time when the output port is enabled is considered to be a different bin of time. A specified pattern is sent, and the output bins are investigated to look for that pattern. The time when the pattern is received indicates the time of flight.

An analog to digital converter oversamples an image signal, and uses the oversampled information to obtain additional resolution. The analog to digital converter is included in an image sensor device having a photosensor array of photosensitive of pixels and a plurality of analog to digital converters. Each of the analog to digital converters is adapted to produce a digital output with a first specified bit resolution. An interpolator is adapted to receive an output thus produced from an analog to digital converter and produce a digital output with a second specific bit resolution.

A digital imaging system, such as an active pixel sensor (APS) system, includes an array of sensors arranged into lines that form rows and columns. Each sensor in the array includes a photosensor that collects electric charge when exposed to light. Each sensor also includes a select circuit that generates an output signal indicating the amount of charge collected by the photosensor during a given time, and a reset circuit that clears collected charge from the sensor at a selected time. The APS system also includes a line decoder circuit that produces select and reset signals and delivers the signals to the select circuits over control lines. Each control line connects to two adjacent lines, e.g., rows or columns, of the array, delivering a select signal to the image sensors in one of the two lines and delivering a reset signal to the image sensors in the other line.
摘要:
The present invention discloses novel peptides derived from the IL-1 receptor antagonist protein (IL1 RA), capable of binding to the cell surface IL-1 receptor 1 (IL1 R1) and interfere with the binding of IL-1 to IL1 R1. This binding thus effectively antagonizes the inflammatory effects of IL-1, such as by reducing TNF-alpha secretion from macrophages. This is of potential use as an anti-inflammatory factor throughout the human body, including the central nervous system. The use of said peptides as anti-inflammatory agents for treatment of pathological conditions wherein IL-1 plays a prominent role, such as inflammatory conditions of the body and the central nervous system, is thus an aspect of the present invention.

In one configuration, the charge from two or more pinned photodiodes may be binned together and applied to the gate of an output transistor.
