Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The invention provides a high dynamic range image sensor reading circuit which is used for reading pixel signals, and the read pixel signals are digital values. As shown in fig. 1, the readout circuit of the present invention includes a pixel unit, an operational amplifier, a row selection switch S1, a switch S2, a switch S3, a switch S4, a switch S5, a switch S6, a capacitor C1, a capacitor C2, and a counter; the inverting input end of the operational amplifier is connected with one end of the switch S2, the switch S3 and the capacitor C1, and is used as a node N1; the other end of the capacitor C1 is connected with one end of a switch S4, the other end of the switch S2 is connected with one end of a switch S6, the other end of the switch S3 is simultaneously connected with the other end of a switch S4, one end of a switch S5, the control end of the counter and the output end of the operational amplifier, the other end of the switch S5 is connected with one end of the capacitor C2 and the other end of the switch S6, and the other end of the capacitor C2 is connected with the negative pole of the power supply; the inverting input of the operational amplifier is connected to the output of the pixel cell through the row select switch S1. The non-inverting input end of the operational amplifier inputs a reference signal VRAMP, wherein the reference signal VRAMP comprises a fixed reference voltage and a ramp voltage.
With reference to fig. 1, a plurality of pixel units form a pixel array, the connection relationship between each pixel unit in the pixel array and the readout circuit can be determined according to the specific readout mode of the pixel array, when the pixel array performs pixel signal readout in a column readout mode, the pixel units in the same column in the pixel array are connected to the same readout circuit, and the connection relationship of the readout circuit is described in detail below by taking only one pixel unit in the column readout circuit as an example. The output end of the pixel unit is connected to the inverting input end of the operational amplifier through the row selection switch S1; specifically, the pixel unit includes a photodiode, wherein an output terminal of the pixel unit is connected to one end of the row selection switch S1, the other end of the row selection switch S1 is connected to an inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier, an anode of the photodiode is connected to a negative electrode of the power supply, and a cathode of the photodiode is connected to one end of the row selection switch S1. In fig. 1, the pixel units are located in a pixel array, the output ends of the same row of pixel units in the pixel array are respectively connected with one ends of different row selection switches, and the other ends of the different row selection switches are connected with the inverting input end of an operational amplifier; that is, the photodiode and row select switch S1 of FIG. 1 may be connected as a repeating unit at node N1, combined into a column-level signal processing image sensor.
As shown in fig. 2-5, the method for reading out pixel signals by the image sensor readout circuit with high dynamic range provided by the present invention includes the following steps:
s01: as shown in fig. 3, the switch S3 and the switch S5 are turned on, the row selection switch S1, the switch S2, the switch S4 and the switch S6 are turned off, the operational amplifier is reset, and the fixed reference voltage V is input to the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifierREFAnd the voltage of the inverting input end, the voltage of the non-inverting input end and the voltage of the output end of the operational amplifier are all equal to VREF;
S02: as shown in fig. 4, the row selection switch S1, the switch S4 and the switch S5 are turned on, the switch S2, the switch S3 and the switch S6 are turned off, and the readout circuit integrates the pixel signal output by the pixel unit, and at this time, the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier inputs the fixed reference voltage VREF. In the integration process, the dynamic range of the image sensor can be improved as long as the time of the integration process is increased. Specifically increasing the time of the integration process may be accomplished by controlling the specific times at which the row select switch S1, switch S4, and switch S5 are turned on. The specific dynamic range of the image sensor can be flexibly set according to the process condition and the application environment of the image sensor. Specifically, integrating the pixel signal means integrating the photocurrent generated by the photodiode in the pixel unit.
S03: as shown in fig. 5, the switchS2 and the switch S6 are turned on, the row selection switch S1, the switch S3, the switch S4 and the switch S5 are turned off, and the non-inverting input end of the operational amplifier is connected with the ramp voltage VRAMP(ii) a The ramp voltage can be generated by a ramp generator in the prior art, and the readout circuit performs analog-to-digital conversion on the pixel signal to obtain a digital value of the pixel signal. Specifically, when the switch S2 and the switch S6 are turned on, and the row selection switch S1, the switch S3, the switch S4 and the switch S5 are turned off, the counter starts counting, the ramp voltage changes with a fixed slope, when the ramp unit and the pixel signal are equal, the ramp unit and the pixel signal form an intersection in fig. 5, the operational amplifier is turned over at the intersection, the output end signal of the comparator jumps to stop counting by the counter, and the count value generated by the counter is the digital value of the pixel signal. In the invention, all the pixel signals after analog-to-digital conversion are digital pixel signals, namely digital values corresponding to the pixel signals output by the pixel units.
The operational amplifier used in the analog-to-digital conversion in the step is the same as the operational amplifier used in the pixel signal integration in the step S02, and compared with the structure in the prior art in which the sampling and the analog-to-digital conversion respectively use the corresponding operational amplifiers, the structure in the invention can effectively reduce the chip area. In the invention, the image sensor readout circuit can sample and read out the pixel signals by adopting a correlated double sampling mode or other sampling modes in the prior art, when the readout circuit performs correlated double sampling on the pixel array, the step S03 includes reset pixel signal readout and exposure pixel signal readout, and the methods of reset pixel signal readout and exposure pixel signal readout are both the methods in the step S03. The related double sampling can eliminate the interference of reset noise, has the inhibiting effect on low-frequency noise, can obviously improve the signal-to-noise ratio and improve the signal detection precision. Because the pixel signal output by each pixel unit contains both photosensitive signal and reset pulse voltage signal, if the output pixel signal is sampled at the integration start time and the integration end time of the photoelectric signal (within a pixel signal output period, two sampling pulses are generated, two levels of the output signal are respectively sampled, namely, one time is to sample the reset signal level, and the other time is to sample the exposure signal level), and the sampling time interval is held well for two times, so that the noise voltage difference of the two times of sampling is almost the same, and the two sampling values are subtracted, thereby basically eliminating the interference of reset noise and obtaining the actual effective amplitude of the exposure signal level.
The readout circuit can effectively improve the dynamic range of the image sensor by flexibly adjusting the pixel signal integration time, and can effectively reduce the area of a chip where the readout circuit is located by realizing the pixel signal integration and the analog-to-digital conversion by the same operational amplifier.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the embodiment is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, so that all equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the specification and the drawings of the present invention should be included in the scope of the appended claims.
