A system for controlling power applied to pixels in an imager. A first switch coupling the internal power node of the pixels to the power supply of the imager. A second switch coupling the internal power node of the pixels to a ground potential or low potential. The first and second switches are controlled complimentary to each other during integration and readout of the pixels. A third switch providing a high impedance mode where the internal power node and n+ guard ring are isolated from the operating and ground potentials.
