摘要

A pixel array to which a high dynamic range and a white pixel are applied, and an image sensor including the same are provided. The pixel array of the image sensor includes: a plurality of pixel groups, each pixel group including one or more long exposure pixels and one or more short exposure pixels, wherein each pixel group includes a first pixel, among the one or more long exposure pixels and the one or more short exposure pixels, having a white component and second to fourth pixels, among the one or more long exposure pixels and the one or more short exposure pixels, having first to third color components, the first pixel belonging to a first pixel group is a long exposure pixel, and the first pixel belonging to a second pixel group that is adjacent to the first pixel group is a short exposure pixel.
