Abstract

The invention discloses an image sensor, which includes: a plurality of pixels, including a pixel to be resolved and a reference pixel; The switch is connected with the reference pixel and the pixel to be resolved, and the comparator also includes a third switch connected between its first input terminal and output terminal, and between the second input terminal and the output terminal; a waveform generator, which communicates with the The second input terminal of the comparator is connected; the counter, its input terminal is connected with the output terminal of the comparator; the first latch and the second latch, the first latch is connected with the output terminal of the counter through the fourth switch, The second latch is connected to the output terminal of the counter through the fifth switch; the controller is used to control the first switch to the fifth switch to generate a conversion result according to the Reset signal and the Signal signal output by the pixel to be analyzed and the reference pixel, thereby The power supply noise of the pixel array can be effectively eliminated, and the analysis precision is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image processing, in particular to an image sensor, an electronic device and an image processing method. Background technique [0002] Image sensors (CMOS image sensors, CIS) have been more and more widely used due to the advantages of low power consumption and the ability to integrate sensors and readout circuits on the same chip. The image sensor in the related art is generally composed of a pixel (pixel) array and a corresponding readout circuit. Due to the existence of metal wiring parasitics, in practical applications, the power supply of each column is inconsistent, which causes the difference between columns, that is, Power supply noise is generated, wherein the power supply noise may include power supply noise caused by inconsistent power supply of the pixel array and power supply noise caused by inconsistent power supply of the readout circuit. [0003] However, the disadvantage of the related t...
