Abstract
A driver circuit of an image sensor is provided. The driver circuit includes a row decoder to decode an address of a target row of a pixel array and generate an operation directing signal corresponding to the target row; a digital logic circuit including: a target row logic circuit to generate a pixel control signal based on the operation directing signal; a power switch configured to connect a power supply voltage to the target row logic circuit during a first time and isolate the power supply voltage from the target row logic circuit during a second time, based on the operation directing signal; and an output circuit configured to output a default signal during the second time; and a row driver configured to drive the target row based on the pixel control signal during the first time and drive the target row based on the default signal during the second time.
