Abstract

An image sensing device including a pixel array including a plurality of pixels and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) configured to convert an analog signal into a digital signal is provided. The ADC includes a first circuit configured to receive the analog signal from a selected pixel among the plurality of pixels and generate a first output signal and a second circuit including a select transistor configured to apply a voltage to a floating node electrically connected to the select transistor based on the first output signal. The second circuit further includes a capacitor connected in parallel between a gate and a drain of the select transistor and an output circuit connected to the floating node and configured to output the digital signal based on the applied voltage to the floating node.
