It is about a method.

Currently, CMOS image sensors are dominant in the field of solid-state imaging because they are easier to manufacture and can be produced at lower cost than charge coupled devices (CCDs). Such a CMOS image sensor may be implemented in a narrower area than a CCD as the unit pixel is composed of MOS transistors, thereby providing high resolution. Furthermore, signal processing logic such as correlated double sampling (CDS), analog digital convertor (ADC), and ramp generators can be formed simultaneously with the MOS transistors that make up the pixel, Another advantage is that one chip manufacturing is possible.
