Abstract:
An analog to digital converting circuit includes a correlated double sampling circuit (CDS) that compares a pixel signal with a ramp signal, and outputs a comparison signal, a timing amplifier that increases an active time of the comparison signal “N” times, and outputs an extended signal, wherein the “N” is a positive integer, and a counter that outputs a digital signal corresponding to the pixel signal in response to the extended signal and a first clock signal.

Claim (Index 16):
The analog to digital converting circuit of  claim 15 , wherein the first voltage control unit includes:\n a first capacitor connected with the first node and configured to charge the first voltage of the first node in response to a reset signal; and a first current source connected with the first node and configured to control the first voltage of the first node in response to the internal comparison signal, wherein the second voltage control unit includes: a second capacitor connected with the second node and configured to charge the second voltage of the second node in response to the reset signal; and a second current source connected with the second node and configured to control the second voltage of the second node in response to the internal comparison signal, wherein a value of the \u201cN\u201d is determined based on a capacitance of the first capacitor, an amount of current of the first current source, a capacitance of the second capacitor, and an amount of current of the second current source.
