A Method to Achieve High Dynamic Range in a CMOS Image Sensor Using Interleaved Row Readout
in IEEE Sensors Journal
| Description | We proved that it is possible to read out different parts of a CMOS at different rates and so avoid the extra read-out noise when having to read-out multiple times during an integration on a science target. Thus for the same length exposure we can then reach a higher dynamic ranges with CMOS than we can do currently with CMOS (or any CCD). |
