Abstract
A range-measuring device encompasses a light emitter, a light-receiving region for receiving a reflected light of the pulsed light from the target, a driver for transmitting control signals to the light emitter and for transmitting transfer signals to distributing gates, providing offset periods in between on-periods of the transfer signals, distributing gates distribute signal charges to charge-accumulation regions, a range calculator configured to calculate ranges to the target, by using the signals transmitted from the charge-accumulation regions, and a control processor configured to generate control signals for controlling operations of the driver from calculated result delivered from the range calculator, and to transmit the control signals to the driver.
