Zusammenfassung:An image sensor comprises an array comprising rows and columns of pixels, a first number N of connection lines connected to a first number N of pixels of the array, a voltage regulating circuit having an output, a first terminal, and a driver circuit. The driver circuit has a first number N of switches coupled to the first number N of connection lines and to the output of the voltage regulating circuit, and a first number N of further switches coupled to the first number N of connection lines and to the first terminal. The first number N is at least two.
