    • A method and apparatus for a single-polysilicon active pixel are disclosed. The single-polysilicon active pixel comprises a photo site located on a substrate for generating and storing charge carriers, the charge carriers being generated from photonic energy incident upon the photo site and semiconductor substrate, a photo gate, a transfer transistor and output and reset electronics. The gate of the transfer transistor and the photo gate are defined in a single layer of polysilicon disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The source of transfer transistor is a doped region of substrate, referred to as a coupling diffusion, which provides the electrical coupling between the photo gate and the transfer transistor. The coupling diffusion allows for the transfer of a signal stored in a photo site under the photo gate to the output electronics for processing.
      The single-polysilicon active pixel may be operated by biasing the transfer transistor to the low operating voltage of the pixel, for example, 0 volts. By virtue of the structure of the single-polysilicon active pixel, this mode of operation results in the same timing as if the transfer transistor were clocked, but neither a clock nor the associated driving circuitry are required. However, there is little no tendency for image lag as occurs in double polysilicon active pixels when they are operated in a manner which avoids clocking the transfer gate.
    • 公开了一种用于单多晶硅有源像素的方法和装置。 单个多晶硅有源像素包括位于衬底上的用于产生和存储电荷载流子的光电位置,电荷载流子是从入射到光电位置的半导体衬底,光栅,转移晶体管以及输出和复位电子 。 转移晶体管的栅极和光栅限定在设置在半导体衬底上的单层多晶硅中。 转移晶体管的源是衬底的掺杂区域,被称为耦合扩散,其提供光栅和转移晶体管之间的电耦合。 耦合扩散允许将存储在光栅下的照片位置的信号传送到输出电子器件用于处理。 可以通过将传输晶体管偏置到像素的低工作电压(例如0伏)来操作单多晶硅有源像素。 由于单个多晶硅有源像素的结构,这种操作模式产生与转移晶体管时钟相同的定时,但是不需要时钟和相关的驱动电路。 然而,当双重多晶硅有源像素以避免传输门时钟的方式操作时,几乎没有发生图像滞后的趋势。

    • A method and apparatus is provided for comparing a first input voltage (V 1 ) to a second input voltage (V 2 ). In one embodiment of the invention, a first input voltage (V 1 ) is transformed into a first current flowing through a first transistor (3) and a second transistor (6). A second input voltage (V 2 ) is transformed into a second current flowing through the first transistor (3) while the first current continues flowing through the second transistor (6). A difference current is developed which represents the difference between the first current and the second current. An indicator signal is generated (at 9) which indicates the larger of the first and second input voltages based on the value of the difference current.

    • A motion detection camera system which may be used as a security camera includes an active pixel imaging system (3) operable in a video and differential mode connected to a mode activation circuit (4) that controls the imaging system mode. In the video mode, the imaging system generates an output signal containing information of a viewed area on a frame by frame manner. In the differential mode, the imaging system generates a differential output signal containing information consisting of the differences in the viewed area between adjacent detected frames. Normally, the imaging system camera is operated in the differential mode. If no motion occurs in the viewed area, the corresponding differential output signal representing the interframe differences will have a constant signal level. Upon detecting that the differential output signal deviates by greater than a threshold level indicating motion in the viewed area, the mode activation circuit (4) causes the imaging system (3) to operate in its video mode. The corresponding generated video output signal of the imaging system is then provided to monitoring equipment, such as a video cassette recorder (2) for recording of the motion in the viewed area.

    • In an active pixel imaging system and method to generate an differential output signal consisting of the differences in a viewed image between adjacent detected frames a buffered electrical charge storage capacity (110) of the active pixel sensor (35) is utilized to provide a system with reduced complexity and hardware requirements. In the imaging system, when a particular active pixel sensor is activated it generates a voltage signal (at 50) corresponding to a previous frame's detected light intensity before the pixel is reset to generate a voltage signal (at 50) corresponding to a present frame's detected light intensity. A differential output circuit (18) is used to generate a differential output signal based on these two generated voltage signals.
