Abstract
A pulse generator of an image sensor includes a delay cell including a plurality of transistors arranged in series between a power voltage and a ground, a stabilization capacitor, and a stabilization switch. The power voltage is supplied to a first terminal of a first transistor disposed first among the plurality of transistors, and a gate terminal of the first transistor is connected to a first node. An input voltage is supplied to a gate terminal of an n-th transistor disposed last among the plurality of transistors, and a ground voltage is supplied to a first terminal of the n-th transistor. The stabilization switch is disposed between a reference voltage input terminal providing a reference voltage and the first node. The stabilization switch is turned on by an input bias control signal to supply the reference voltage to the first node.
