摘要
In this paper, analytical expressions of dark currents and equivalent noise generators of a CMOS color image sensor are presented, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at both outputs is evaluated. Static measurements and simulations on Austria Micro Systems 0.35-mu m CMOS test structures yield guidelines to increase the SNR of the buried double-junction photodetector.
