Description

用于CMOS-TDI图像传感器的电流累加型像素结构 技术领域
本发明涉及模拟集成电路设计领域,特别涉及一种用于CMOS-TDI图像传感器的电流累加型像素结构。
背景技术
TDI型图像传感器以其特殊的扫描方式,实现很高的SNR和灵敏度,特別适用于高速运动低照度的环境下。TDI的基本原理是使用面阵排布的像素阵列以线阵扫描的方式工作,进而可实现不同行的像素对移动中的同一物体进行多次曝光,并将每次曝光结果进行累加,等效延长了像素对物体的曝光积分时间,因此可以大幅提升SNR和灵敏度。传统TDI型图像传感器均是通过CCD器件实现,但与CCD图像传感器相比目前CMOS图像传感器具有更低的功耗、成本以及更高的集成度,因此通过CMOS图像传感器实现TDI功能(即CMOS-TDI图像传感器),可使TDI相机的成本大幅下降并得到更广泛的应用。为使CMOS图像传感器实现TDI功能,现有技术提出通过在CMOS图像传感器内部集成模拟信号累加器的方法来实现CMOS-TDI图像传感器,即像素输出的模拟信号先进入模拟信号累加器中完成对相同曝光信号的累加,然后将完成累加的模拟信号送入ADC进行量化输出。此外,现有技术还曾提出首先通过ADC将CMOS图像传感器中像素输出进行量化,然后再通过片内集成的数字域累加器完成对相同曝光信号的累加。但是无论是先累加再量化输出还是先量化再累加输出,都需要在一个曝光周期(行转移时间)内将CMOS图像传感器中所有像素的曝光结果进行读出,因此读出速度势必会限制最短曝光周期即限制最大行频。为解决这一问题,现有技术提出了像素内集成缓冲单元以实现临近像素间的信号传递的方法,类似CCD型TDI图像传感器可流水线式完成信号的累加操作,每个曝光周期内只有最后一行像素的输出需要被量化读出,因此解决了读出速度对行频的限制,进而可以实现更快的行频。但是该技术在对像素输出信号进行流水式累加过程中会引入大量的热噪声和运放的失调电压,且因为像素内集成了缓冲单元降低了像素的填充因子,限制了传感器的灵敏度。
发明内容
为克服现有技术的不足,本发明旨在使CMOS图像传感器能够较好的实现TDI功能,提高CMOS-TDI图像传感器的行频,扩大TDI技术的应用范围,为此,本发明采用的技术方案是,用于CMOS-TDI图像传感器的电流累加型像素结构,由一个光电二极管、四个MOS晶体管M1~M4、4个开关S1~S4和两个电容C1~C2组成,具体连接关系描述如下:光电二极管的阳极连接到地线,其阴极连接到输入端;晶体管M1的漏极和栅极同时连接到输入端,其源级连接到电源VDD上;晶体管M2的源极连接到电源VDD上,其栅极与晶体管M1的栅极相连,其漏极同时连接到晶体管M3的漏极和栅极;晶体管M3的源极连接到地线上;电容C1与C2的下极板均连接到地线上,它们的上极板分别通过开关S1和S3连接到晶体管M3的栅极,再分别通过开关S2和S4连接到晶体管M4的栅极;晶体管M4的源极连接到地线上,其漏极连接到输出端。
列像素实现流水式TDI信号累加功能,具体工作过程描述如下:在第M个行转移时间内,某物体X经过第N个像素,光电二极管形成的光电流与前级输出电流总和通过镜像晶体管M1和M2流入晶体管M3中,假设此时开关S1和S4闭合,则晶体管M3将流过其的电流IM转换为电压信号存在在电容C1上;在第M+1个行转移时间内,物体X经过第N+1个像素,因为第N+1个像素的输入与第N个像素的输出相连,且此时开关S2和S3闭合,因此在第N个像素中存储在电容C1上的电压信号通过晶体管M4还原成电流IM流经晶体管M4,在第N+1个像素的M1中将会流过电流IM与光电二极管形成的光电流的总和,记为IM+1,类似的像素N+1将该电流转换为电压信号存储在电容C2上待下个行转移时间再将其还原为电流信号并传递至下一个像素,第N个像素中存储的电流信号IM即为同一物体在前N个像素中形成的光电流的总和,实现了TDI信号累加功能。
版图结构为,同列像素输入输出串联后形成流水线式电流累加型TDI像素阵列,在最后一行像素后级联电压电流转换单元,将最后一行像素输出的已完成电流信号累加的电流转换为电压信号再由后级的ADC转换为数字信号进行输出。
本发明的技术特点及效果:
所述的用于CMOS-TDI图像传感器中的电流累加型像素结构可在曝光同时完成前级像素输出信号向后级像素的传递,同列像素实现了对相同物体曝光结果的流水线式累加,每个曝光周期内只需读出最后一行像素的输出,降低了读出速度对最短曝光时间的限制,提升了传感器的最大行频;所提出的像素结构简单未使用运放结构,且在每次累加操作中仅使用一次开关电容采用过程,因此不会引入过多的热噪声。本发明可较好的实现TDI功能,提高CMOS-TDI图像传感器的行频,扩大TDI技术的应用范围。

具体实施方式
本发明所提出的可用于CMOS-TDI图像传感器中的电流累加型像素结构如图1所示,其主要由一个光电二极管(D1)、四个MOS晶体管(M1~M4)、4个开关(S1~S4)和两个电容(C1~C2)组成,它们之间的具体连接关系描述如下:光电二极管D1的阳极连接到地线,其阴极连接到输入端;晶体管M1的漏极和栅极同时连接到输入端,其源级连接到电源VDD上;晶体管M2的源极连接到电源VDD上,其栅极与晶体管M1的栅极相连,其漏极同时连接到晶体管M3的漏极和栅极;晶体管M3的源极连接到地线上;电容C1与C2的下极板均连接到地线上,它们的上极板分别通过开关S1和S3连接到晶体管M3的栅极,再分别通过开关S2和S4连接到晶体管M4的栅极;晶体管M4的源极连接到地线上,其漏极连接到输出端。如图1所示,通过多个不同像素输入与输出之间的连接形成CMOS-TDI图像传感器中的单列 像素,在如图2所示的时序控制下,该列像素即可实现流水式TDI信号累加功能。具体工作过程描述如下:在第M个行转移时间内,某物体X经过第N个像素,光电二极管D1形成的光电流与前级输出电流总和通过镜像晶体管M1和M2流入晶体管M3中,假设此时开关S1和S4闭合,则晶体管M3将流过其的电流IM转换为电压信号存在在电容C1上;在第M+1个行转移时间内,物体X经过第N+1个像素,因为第N+1个像素的输入与第N个像素的输出相连,且此时开关S2和S3闭合,因此在第N个像素中存储在电容C1上的电压信号通过晶体管M4还原成电流IM流经晶体管M4,在第N+1个像素的M1中将会流过电流IM与光电二极管形成的光电流的总和,记为IM+1,类似的像素N+1将该电流转换为电压信号存储在电容C2上待下个行转移时间再将其还原为电流信号并传递至下一个像素。通过上面描述的操作,第N个像素中存储的电流信号IM即为同一物体在前N个像素中形成的光电流的总和,实现了TDI信号累加功能。
为使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清晰,下面将结合实例给出本发明实施方式的具体描述。一种使用本发明提出的像素结构的1024×100CMOS-TDI图像传感器的架构如图3所示。同列像素输入输出串联后形成流水线式电流累加型TDI像素阵列,在最后一行像素(第100行像素)后级联电压电流转换单元,将最后一行像素输出的已完成100次电流信号累加的电流转换为电压信号再由后级的ADC转换为数字信号进行输出。如果行转移时间为5微秒,则行频为200KHz,而ADC的转换速率也仅为200KHz即可。
