CMOS image sensor

摘要

A complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor comprises a photodiode region generating electrical charges in response to incident light thereon. The CMOS image sensor further comprises a first floating diffusion layer adapted to receive the electrical charges from the photodiode region in response to a global transfer signal and a second floating diffusion region adapted to receive the electrical charges from the first floating diffusion region in response to a pixel selection signal.
