==PIXEL ARRAY ACCUMULATING PHOTOCHARGES IN EACH UNIT FRAME, AND IMAGE SENSOR INCUDING THE PIXEL ARRAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17879497 titled 'PIXEL ARRAY ACCUMULATING PHOTOCHARGES IN EACH UNIT FRAME, AND IMAGE SENSOR INCUDING THE PIXEL ARRAY

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a pixel array with multiple pixels, each containing a photodiode that generates a photocharge. The pixels also have a floating diffusion node to receive the photocharge. Additionally, there are two storage capacitors in each pixel to store the photocharge generated during different time periods in each frame.

* The pixel array consists of multiple pixels with photodiodes and storage capacitors.
* Each pixel generates a photocharge using its photodiode.
* The photocharge is received by a floating diffusion node in each pixel.
* There are two storage capacitors in each pixel to store the photocharge generated during different time periods in each frame.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Image sensors in digital cameras and smartphones
* Surveillance cameras and security systems
* Medical imaging devices such as X-ray machines and ultrasound scanners
* Automotive cameras for advanced driver-assistance systems

Problems solved by this technology:

* Efficiently capturing and storing photocharges generated by photodiodes
* Improving the performance and sensitivity of image sensors
* Reducing noise and improving image quality

Benefits of this technology:

* Higher resolution and image quality in captured photos and videos
* Improved low-light performance and sensitivity
* Reduced noise and better signal-to-noise ratio
* Enhanced performance in various imaging applications


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Provided is a pixel array including a plurality of pixels, each of which includes a photodiode configured to generate a photocharge in a frame including a plurality of unit frames, a floating diffusion node configured to receive the photocharge, a first storage capacitor configured to receive and store a first photocharge generated by the photodiode through the floating diffusion node during a first unit accumulation time period in each of the plurality of unit frames, and a second storage capacitor configured to receive and store a second photocharge generated by the photodiode through the floating diffusion node during a second unit accumulation time period in each of the plurality of unit frames.
