Claim 23:
24. An apparatus comprising:
an array of pixel cells, wherein each pixel cell of the array of pixel cells includes:
a memory to store pixel-level programming data and measurement data, the pixel-level programming data including control bits and data bits; and
a controller configured to, based on the pixel-level programming data from the memory:
select a first component of the light measurement circuits based on the control bits; and
configure the first component based on the data bits of the pixel-level programming data; and

light measurement circuits configured to perform, using the first component configured based on the data bits, a light measurement operation to generate the measurement data, and to store the measurement data at the memory; and
a peripheral circuit configured to:
receive a pixel array programming map including pixel-level programming data targeted at each pixel cell;
extract the pixel-level programming data from the pixel array programming map; and
for each pixel cell, transmit the respective pixel-level programming data to the respective pixel cell of the array of pixel cells to store at the memory of the respective pixel cell and to individually control the light measurement operation and a generation of the measurement data at the respective pixel cell.
