Abstract
A radiographic energy detecting pixel generates charges in a photosensor in response to photon impacts. A switch electrically connected to the photosensor selectively transmits collected charges to a data line. A sensing circuit electrically connected to the photosensor detects a rate of accumulation of the charges in the photosensor.
