Abstract
The present disclosure concerns a SPAD photodiode control circuit, including: a first current source; a current mirror including an input transistor in series with the first current source and an output transistor in series with the SPAD photodiode and a second current source in series with the input transistor of the current mirror and in parallel with the first current source, the second current source being alternately controllable to a so-called inactive state where it delivers no current and to a so-called active state where it delivers a non-zero current which adds, in the input transistor of the current mirror, to a current delivered by the first current source.
