Title: Variable active image area image sensor
Inventor: ZARNOWSKI JEFFREY JON
IPC: G06K9/46
Filed: 2011-02-24
Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a variable active image area. Sub-pixels are arranged into a variable selection group, which comprises a pixel group. Sub-pixels of the pixel group can belong to a plurality of selection subgroups. A selector is configured to select a combination of one or more selection subgroups to provide variable sub-pixel selection. Variable sub-pixel selection can vary different aspects of a variable active image area (e.g., location, size, shape). Varying these aspects can lead to greater flexibility in alignment and calibration considerations. Selecting only some of all the sub-pixels can lead to less processing and lower power consumption. A plurality of sub-pixel values can be processed into one pixel group value. Variable sub-pixel selection for different variable selection groups can be independent. Holding circuitry can hold unused or non-selected sub- pixels in a reset condition to reduce blooming.
