This paper, which was reported at IEEE Symposium on VLSI circuit 2023, presents a high-speed, power-efficient single-slope column ADC. The ADC detects and attenuates the bright signals before conversion. A 7.1 Mpixel stacked prototype CMOS image sensor implementing the new ADC attains 14-bit, 224 fps with good characteristics. The ADC also works efficiently with pixel dual-conversion gain readout, achieving a dynamic range of 91 dB. |
