PIXEL SIGNAL BINNING AND INTERPOLATION IN COLUMN CIRCUITS OF A SENSOR CIRCUIT

摘要

A binning circuit and related method, wherein pixel signals from column circuits in a sensor circuit are sampled and interpolated. The binning circuit samples analog pixel and reset signals from different sensor circuit column lines. Once a predetermined number of column lines are sampled in the binning circuit, the sampled pixel signals are averaged together in one operation, while the reset signals are averaged together in another operation.
