Apparatus for operating a CMOS imager having a pipelined analog to digital converter

摘要

An image sensor system using offset analog to digital converters. The analog to digital converters require a plurality of clock cycles to carry out the actual conversion. These conversions are offset in time from one another, so that at each clock cycle, new data is available.Systems are disclosed in which an image sensor converts an analog signal into a digital signal using a pipelined analog to digital converter.
