Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to TDI image sensor technologies fields, and in particular to a kind of CMOSTDI imaging sensors and its control
Method.
Background technology
Time delays integral (Time Delay Integration, abbreviation TDI) imaging sensor is linear image sensing
A kind of differentiation of device.Imaging mechanism is exposed line by line for the pixel passed through to shooting object, and exposure results are added up, to
Solve the problems, such as that the imaging signal caused by high-speed moving object time for exposure deficiency is weak.TDI imaging sensors can increase effectively
Time for exposure improves signal noise ratio (snr) of image.
TDI imaging sensors are divided into two kinds of CCD and CMOS, since the imaging mechanism and ccd image sensor charge of TDI turn
Telephone-moving reason is consistent, and traditional TDI imaging sensors are generally used the manufacture of CCD techniques.It is lossless that charge may be implemented in the CCD TDI
It shifts and adds up, do not introduce additional noise.If charge is M grades cumulative (the TDI imaging sensors with M rows), signal-to-noise ratio carries
Rise M times.However due to the particularity of CCD techniques, other processing circuits can not be integrated on the image sensor, versatility and flexibly
Property is poor.
Another TDI imaging sensor is CMOS types, and basic framework is as shown in Figure 1.The TDI imaging sensors are based on
Universal CMOS manufacturing process, each pixel correspond to a charge transfer region, and the charge for being transferred to the area amplifies by a charge
Module is converted to voltage signal.Film speed is consistent with object gait of march line by line for sensor array, and often row pixel exports one
Voltage signal.All M line output voltages signals are cumulative, and for M grades of TDI imaging sensors, M times of signal boost, but voltage domain is made an uproar
Sound is also promoted therewithTimes, thus signal-to-noise ratio is only promotedTimes.In addition to this, it is required for reading more due to exposing each time
Capable information of voltage adds up, and increases the complexity of reading circuit design.
