Provided are an image sensor and an imaging device including the same. The image sensor is configured to generate illuminance data by receiving a light signal including image information of an object and ambient light information and includes a sensing module including a pixel array including a plurality of unit pixels, configured to sense the light signal irradiated to the pixel array and to generate pixel data corresponding to the sensed light signal, and an illuminance data generator configured to generate illuminance data corresponding to ambient light based on the pixel data, wherein the illuminance data generator is configured to generate the illuminance data based on pixel data when the light signal is not focused on the pixel array.

Image sensor and imaging device including the same

An image sensor is provided which includes a plurality of operation blocks configured to provide an image signal in response to an incident light, and a power supply block configured to supply a power to one or more operation blocks of the plurality of operation blocks based on a selected operation mode or operation interval. The operation mode is one of at least a first mode and a second mode, and a resolution of the image signal generated in the second mode is lower than that generated in the first mode.

Image sensor, image signal processor and electronic device including the same

A method and an apparatus which adjusts a signal read from an optical disc in order to obtain stable binary data. The signal adjustment method comprises (a) detecting a period of an input signal of a predetermined code; (b) determining whether the detected period is smaller than a predetermined value; and (c) if the detected period is determined to be smaller than the predetermined value, adjusting the input signal so that its period equals the predetermined value, and outputting the input signal. The signal adjustment method and apparatus of the present invention reduce errors and improve system performance, when a signal input to the binary processor does not meet its code feature.
