Abstract
Systems and methods for pixel-circuit supply voltage noise cancellation are described herein. In one embodiment, a pixel circuit of an imaging sensor includes: a front-end circuit having a photodiode configured to generate electrical charges that accumulate at a floating diffusion FD0 as a photodiode voltage. The pixel circuit also includes a signal storage circuit coupled to the front-end circuit, the signal storage circuit including a common floating diffusion FDC configured to store a common floating diffusion voltage corresponding to the photodiode voltage. A unity gain circuit is coupled to the signal storage circuit. The unity gain circuit includes an operational amplifier that generates a control voltage VCTRL as an output voltage. The control voltage VCTRL includes the voltage noise component of the supply voltage PIXVDD. An output circuit is configured for outputting a signal voltage VS corresponding to the floating diffusion voltage.
