A data sampler and a photo detecting apparatus compensate a reference signal with offset information measured from a unit pixel, and compare an offset-compensated reference signal with a data signal, thereby minimizing the impact of an offset occurring with an increase of gain in the data sampler.

A CDS circuit is provided. The CDS circuit includes a signal compressor which compresses each of a pixel signal and a ramp signal using capacitive dividing and outputs a compressed pixel signal and a compressed ramp signal, and a comparator which compares the compressed pixel signal with the compressed ramp signal and outputs a comparative signal corresponding to a comparison result.

A sense amplifier having a negative capacitance circuit receives differential input signals via a pair of data lines, and senses and amplifies a voltage difference between differential output signals corresponding to the differential input signals as loaded by the negative capacitance circuit using a differential-to-single-ended amplifier to generate a corresponding data output signal.

Provided is an organic pixel, which includes a semiconductor substrate including a pixel circuit, an interconnection layer having a first contact and a first electrode formed on a semiconductor substrate, and an organic photo-diode formed on the interconnection layer. For example, the organic photo-diode includes an insulation layer formed on the first electrode, a second electrode and a photo-electric conversion region formed between the first contact, the insulation layer and the second electrode. The photo-electric conversion region includes an electron donating organic material and an electron accepting organic material. The organic photo-diode may further include a second contact electrically connected to the first contact. The horizontal distance between the second contacts and the insulation layer may be less than or equal to a few micrometers, for example, 10 micrometers.

An apparatus for providing a user interface, which provides a keyboard layout, is provided. A display portion of a user interface apparatus displays a portion of a plurality of keys that are included in the keyboard layout, and provides individual input keys of at least a predetermined size inside a display area that is limited by not displaying the portion of the plurality of keys. The keys which are displayed on the display portion comprise a first input key, which is allocated to a first character, and a second input key, which is allocated to a second character that differs from the first character. In this case, when a sensor portion detects user input with respect to the first input key, and the first input key moves to a position of the second input key by means of the user input, so that the first input key comes closer to the second input character to be at a distance shorter than a predetermined critical value, a processor decides a third character, which differs from the first and second characters, as a current input value that corresponds to the user input, wherein the third character corresponds to a character which is not separately displayed as an individual input key by the display portion.
