Image sensor with capacitor randomization for column gain
Abstract:
A pixel cell readout circuit includes a bitline input stage coupled to a bitline to receive an image signal from a pixel cell. A capacitor ratio circuit is coupled to the bitline input stage. A gain of the bitline input stage is responsive to a capacitor ratio provided by the capacitor ratio circuit to the bitline input stage. A switch control circuit is coupled to receive a gain signal. The switch control circuit is coupled to generate a randomized pattern selection signal coupled to be received by the capacitor ratio circuit to select the capacitor ratio provided by the capacitor ratio circuit in response to the gain signal.
