Optimum Design of Conversion Gain and Full Well Capacity in CMOS Image Sensor With Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor

An optimum design theory to clarify a possible limit of achieving both high conversion gain (CG) and full well capacity (FWC) at the same time in a CMOS image sensor with a lateral overflow integration capacitor (LOFIC) in a pixel is discussed. The possible limit of both high CG and high FWC is theo... View More
