IMAGE SENSOR AND VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18098237 Titled 'IMAGE SENSOR AND VEHICLE'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an image sensor that consists of a pixel group divided into two regions. The first region contains a pixel with a photodiode, a floating diffusion region, and a transfer transistor. The second region includes a pixel with a photodiode, a floating diffusion region, and a transfer transistor. The first and second pixels can be arranged in a grid pattern. The total area of the photodiode in the first region is larger than the total area of the photodiode in the second region.
Original Abstract Submitted
An image sensor includes a pixel group including a first region and a second region; and a color filter having a first color on the pixel group, wherein the first region includes a first pixel including a first photodiode, a first floating diffusion region on the first photodiode, and a first transfer transistor on the first photodiode, the second region includes a second pixel including a second photodiode, a second floating diffusion region, and a second transfer transistor connected to the second photodiode and the second floating diffusion region, at least one of the first pixel and the second pixel is arranged in m*n (m and n are natural numbers of 2 or more), and from a planar point of view, a total area of the first photodiode included in the first region is greater than a total area of the second photodiode included in the second region.
