Time-of-flight device and 3d optical detector

Christian Enz, Assim Boukhayma, Antonino Caizzone

A Time-of-flight optical device and a 3D optical detector comprising a CMOS integrated circuit with an array of photosensitive pixels that are, at least in part, interconnected to form macro-pixels (180). Each macro-pixel (180) groups a plurality of indivi ...

Modeling for Ultra Low Noise CMOS Image Sensors

Raffaele Capoccia

The low-light performance of a CMOS image sensor (CIS) is one of the most important performance metrics in a camera, whether it is used in products for consumer electronics or in an image-acquisition system for machine vision or the Internet-of-Things (IoT ...

AC/DC Ratio Enhancement in Photoplethysmography Using a Pinned Photodiode

Christian Enz, Assim Boukhayma, Antonino Caizzone

Photoplethysmography (PPG) enables non-invasive vitals monitoring. Nevertheless, it is intrinsically limited by the extremely small AC/DC ratio, also called perfusion-index (PI). This increases the dynamic-range requirements to reliably process the PPG wav ...

Compact Modeling of Charge Transfer in Pinned Photodiodes for CMOS Image Sensors

Christian Enz, Farzan Jazaeri, Assim Boukhayma, Raffaele Capoccia

In this paper, we propose a physics-based compact model of the pinned photodiode (PPD) combined with the transfer gate. A set of analytical expressions is derived for the 2-D electrostatic profile, the PPD capacitance, and the charge transfer current. The ...
