IMAGING DEVICE AND IMAGE SENSOR

An imaging device is described which, in some examples, includes general pixels and phase difference pixels. The general pixels, when operated by control signals, receive light from a subject and generate currents or voltages that are measured; a depth is estimated based on the measurements. The pha...

Zusammenfassung:An imaging device is described which, in some examples, includes general pixels and phase difference pixels. The general pixels, when operated by control signals, receive light from a subject and generate currents or voltages that are measured; a depth is estimated based on the measurements. The phase difference pixels generate currents based on a switched charge source. Data obtained from the currents generated by the phase difference pixels is used to adjust the control signals and thereby improve an accuracy of the depth estimation.
