Abstract:
An imaging device includes at least a first group of pixels. A driver block is configured to generate at least two shutter signals, each having on-phases periodically alternating with off-phases. The shutter signals might not be in phase. The imaging device may have an optical shutter that is partitioned in two or more parts, or a set of two or more optical shutters. The shutter parts, or the shutters, may receive the shutter signals, and accordingly open and close. A design of the driver block requires reduced power, which is highly desirable for mobile applications. Moreover, 3D imaging may be implemented that uses various time-of-flight configurations.

Claim (Index 68):
The imaging device of  claim 67 , in which\n the driver block includes a first driver unit and a second driver unit different from the first driver unit, wherein the first driver unit generates the first and the third shutter signals in response to receiving the second and the fourth shutter signals, and wherein the second driver unit generates the second and the fourth shutter signals in response to receiving the first and the third shutter signals.
