Abstract

A novel pixel architecture for CMOS image sensors is presented. It uses only one amplifier for both integration of the photocurrent and in-pixel noise cancelation, thus minimizing power consumption. The circuit is specifically designed to be used in readout systems for lateral flow immunoassays. In addition a switching technique is introduced enabling the use of column correlated double sampling technique in capacitive transimpedance amplifier pixel architectures without the use of any memory cells. As a result the reset noise which is crucial in these architectures can be suppressed. The circuit has been designed in a 0.35-μm CMOS technology and simulations are presented to show its performance.
