Abstract

A dynamic vision sensor device includes a photo detector that outputs a detection signal based on light incident from outside, a log amplifier that receives the detection signal from the photo detector through a first node, amplifies the received detection signal, and outputs the amplified detection signal to a second node, a differencing amplifier that outputs a difference signal based on a change in an intensity of the amplified detection signal, and an event determination circuit that determines an event based on the difference signal. The log amplifier includes a first buffer connected between the first node and a third node, an amplifier connected between the third node and the second node, and a feedback circuit connected between the second node and the first node.
