The method of the silicon array detector subsection integral of the present invention designs from software aspects, simple, cost Low, reliability is high, it is to avoid the somewhat complex design of hardware.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Accompanying drawing 1 is the schematic diagram of silicon array detector.It includes photodiode array, for read output signal Switch sections and the shift register of addressing thereof.Silicon array detector uses charge integration method read output signal.By The electric charge that photodiode produces is stored in the corresponding junction capacity of diode array, input clock pulse And initial pulseSequentially turning on corresponding address selection switch, the signal in pixel is read.When all pixels Signal all read after, outputPulse signal.

Accompanying drawing 3 is under the mode of operation of subsection integral, diphasic clock pulseInitial pulseAnd knot Beam pulseAnd the sequential chart of output signal.It is by driving pulse sequence N1With driving pulse sequence N2Hand over Constitute for circulation.Pulse train N1Being the working pulse under normal mode, the time of integration of each pixel is t. In pulse train N2In, X-1 and the X clock pulsesBetween extend time Δ t.At same frame In, before extending time interval, the time of integration of pixel is t.Through the time interval extended, the integration of pixel Time is t+ Δ t.
Accompanying drawing 4 is the theory diagram of detector drive circuit.Programmable logic array producesPulse Signal, controls detector and is exported in analog circuit by charge signal.When last pixel signal is read After, outputEnd of scan signal is to programmable logic array.
Detailed description of the invention
The invention thought of the present invention is:
So-called sectional integration method, is power and the sound thereof of optical signal according to being incident on different section pixel The difference answered, by setting the time interval between driving pulse, suitably regulates different section pixel The method of the time of integration.
The method of the silicon array detector subsection integral of the present invention, changes clock pulses by Software for Design Time interval so that each section pixel produces different time of integration, it is not necessary to change silicon array detector External circuit design.
The method of the silicon array detector subsection integral of the present invention, according to the size of subsection integral time in a frame Sequentially, driving pulse sequence N is utilized1With driving pulse sequence N2The method of alternating action, it is possible in making a frame The time of integration of silicon array detector becomes larger, and has considerable flexibility.
The equivalent circuit diagram of silicon array detector is as shown in Figure 1.Input pulse sequence figure as shown in Figure 2, At initial pulseWith the clock pulses inputted by certain frequencyUnder control, the charge signal of pixel is successively Read.After the signal of last pixel is read, detector output end of scan signal
The present invention realizes the subsection integral of silicon array detector, pulse sequence by the design of driving pulse sequence Row 1 coordinate with pulse train 2, so that the time of integration of pixel 1~N increases, i.e. successively t1≦t2≦t3≦t4…≦tN
User's requirement to different measuring Signal-to-Noise is met by subsection integral, because
Light exposure=illumination (W/cm2) the * time of integration (s)
Output charge=light exposure (W*s/cm2) * sensitivity (cm2*C/J)
If increasing Δ t the time of integration of pixel, then
Output charge=illumination (W/cm2) * (t+ Δ t) (s) * sensitivity (cm2*C/J)。
In same frame time, there is N number of clock pulsesUnder normal mode, the time of integration of pixel is t, As shown in Figure 3.Assume that the signal to noise ratio of the output signal of X pixel (measures signal different to noise less than 1 Also more different than requiring), increase the time interval between the X clock pulses with previous adjacent clock pulses Δ t, then from the 1st to the X-1 clock pulsesWith the clock pulses corresponding to previous frameTime Between be spaced constant, the time of integration is still t, but all increases to the time of integration that n-th pixel is corresponding from X Δt.In like manner, the individual pixel between n-th of X can also increase the time of integration so that amassing of pixel 1~N It is gradually increased between timesharing.
Due to output signal charge QoutCan not be more than the saturated charge Q of pixelsat, cause pixel electric charge to overflow, I.e. Qout< Qsat, output signal charge Q simultaneouslyoutCan not be less than noise charge Q of pixelnoise, i.e. Qnoise< Qout, otherwise signal can be flooded by noise, so
Qnoise< Qout< Qsat, i.e.
Qnoise< illumination * (t+ Δ t) * sensitivity < Qsat
Below by embodiment, the invention will be further described, but should not limit the protection model of the present invention with this Enclose.
The silicon detector RL1210LGQ-711 of RETICON company, effective pixel 1024, outside input Clock pulse signal is produced by programmable logic array, and dc source is detector offer ± 15V, 5V electricity Pressure, as shown in Figure 4.
RL1210LGQ-711 detector realizes the reading of sectional integration method and controls sequential, as shown in Figure 3:
1, at detector pinUpper applying driving pulse sequence N1, this step is used for realizing silicon battle array The initialization of row detector, the data of reading are invalid data.
2, driving pulse sequence N1After end, it will again send pulse train N1, measure pixel output signal Voltage and noise voltage, calculate signal to noise ratioIf signal to noise ratio is less than the specific requirement value of user, Then the signal of this pixel output is weak signal.
3, assume this pixel of control is X pulse, applies driving pulse sequence N on detector pin2, Between X-1 pulse and X pulse, i.e. increase the Δ t time of integration so that X to n-th pixel output Signal strengthens, if the signal of some pixel output after X pixel is the most weak, in like manner can increase picture The time of integration of unit so that the signal of pixel output strengthens.And the time of integration increased has to comply withThe data that this step reads are having under subsection integral method Effect data.
4, driving pulse sequence N2After end, re-enter driving pulse sequence N1.This step is used for realizing silicon The reset of detector array, the data of reading are invalid data.
5, circulation perform step 3,4, the process that repeated acquisition data and detector reset.
Obviously, above-described embodiment is only for clearly demonstrating example, and not to embodiment Limit.For those of ordinary skill in the field, can also be made it on the basis of the above description The change of its multi-form or variation.Here without also cannot all of embodiment be given exhaustive.And by What this was extended out obviously changes or changes among still in the protection domain of the invention.
