==IMAGE SENSING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240282786 titled 'IMAGE SENSING DEVICE

The patent application describes an image sensing device with multiple pixel arrays, including a first pixel array with first unit pixels and a second pixel array surrounding the first array with second unit pixels. Each first unit pixel in the first array contains multiple photodiodes connected to different transfer transistors.

* The image sensing device consists of multiple pixel arrays.
* The first pixel array contains first unit pixels.
* The second pixel array surrounds the first array and includes second unit pixels.
* Each first unit pixel has multiple photodiodes.
* Each photodiode in the first unit pixel is connected to a different transfer transistor.
