摘要
Output voltage of a charge-to-voltage converter used in an image sensing system is compared with one or more thresholds to determine if the output voltage exceeds predetermined threshold levels. If the output voltage exceeds one or more of the threshold levels, the input terminal of the charge-to-voltage converter is connected to a reference voltage to prevent the charge-to-voltage converter from saturating. Problems that could be caused due to overload of the voltage-to-charge converter are obviated. In an embodiment, the charge-to-voltage converter is implemented by an operational amplifier (OPAMP). A pair of comparators compares the output of the OPAMP with corresponding threshold voltages. The result of the comparison is used to generate a signal for connecting the input of the OPAMP to the reference voltage, thereby preventing saturation of the OPAMP.
