Zusammenfassung:	To provide a depth sensor which changes the binning mode based on ambient light intensity, and an operating method thereof.SOLUTION: A method of operating a depth sensor for measuring distance to an object according to the present invention comprises: outputting a pixel signal from at least one depth pixel included in a pixel array; generating ambient light information based on intensity of ambient light outside the depth sensor measured using the pixel signal; and setting the binning mode of the depth sensor to an analog binning mode or digital binning mode according to the ambient light information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】外光強度に基づき、ビニングモードを変更する深度センサ及びその動作方法を提供する。【解決手段】本発明による物体との距離を測定する深度センサの動作方法は、ピクセルアレイに含まれる少なくとも１つの深度ピクセルからピクセル信号を出力する段階と、前記ピクセル信号を利用して測定された前記深度センサの外部の外光強度を基に、外光情報を生成する段階と、前記外光情報を基に、前記深度センサのビニング（Ｂｉｎｎｉｎｇ）モードを、アナログビニングモード又はデジタルビニングモードに設定する段階と、を有する。【選択図】図１
