摘要： An infrared radiation detection device comprising: a substrate; a matrix of at least one line of elements for detecting said radiation, each comprising a resistive imaging bolometer, said matrix being formed above the substrate; means for reading the bolometers of the matrix, means for measuring the temperature in at least one point of the substrate; and means for correcting the signal formed from each bolometer as a function of the temperature measured in at least one point of the substrate. The correcting means are capable of correcting the signal formed from the imaging bolometer by means of a predetermined physical model of the temperature behaviour of said signal.

摘要： A device for detecting infrared radiation comprising an array of bolometric detectors which are sensitive to incident radiation and are referred to as “active” and a bolometer which is insensitive to said radiation and is referred to as “blind” formed on a substrate in which a read circuit is produced for sequentially addressing each of the rows of detectors of the array, each of the active bolometers in a single row being biased simultaneously. The read circuit also comprises means of producing a reference current (Iref) based on the blind bolometer; means of simultaneously copying the reference current (Iref) for each column of the array; and a plurality of current integrators, each associated with one column of the array and each designed to integrate the difference between the current flowing through the active bolometer of the row which is currently being read and said thus copied reference current.

摘要： A CMOS image sensor having one or more pixels, e.g. in an array, whereby each of the pixels having two or more sub-pixel elements for generating charge according to incident light intensity as well as a common charge sensitive device such as an amplifier coupled to two or more sub-pixel elements of a respective pixel. Charges generated by the two or more sub-pixel elements are added and integrated over respective integration time periods, to provide a signal representing the integrated charges. The circuit can be configured so that the two or more sub-pixel elements have different integration time periods. By combining charges at the charge sensitive device rather than combining outputs of multiple such devices, the amount of read noise can be reduced.

摘要： A device for detecting electromagnetic radiation, especially infrared radiation, including an array of elementary bolometers which are sensitive to the incident radiation and are referred to as “active” bolometers and an additional row of bolometers which are substantially insensitive to the radiation and are referred to as “blind” bolometers. The active and blind bolometers are formed on a substrate in which a read circuit is produced for sequential addressing of each of the rows of the array and the row of blind bolometers, each of the bolometers in the same row being biased simultaneously. The read circuit includes a source for producing a reference current (Iref) on the basis of an additional blind bolometer which is also formed on the substrate and means of copying the reference current (Iref) to each of the columns of the array consisting of a current mirror.
