Abstract
An image sensor includes a plurality of pixel circuits for event detection, wherein each pixel circuit includes at least one output transistor and at least one selection transistor electrically connected in series between at least one pixel output and a first supply potential. A column signal line electrically connects the pixel outputs of the plurality of pixel circuits. A comparator/latch circuit is configured to receive a signal derived from a pixel event signal transmitted on the column signal line at a first comparator input, and to output a latched active column event signal, when the signal at the first comparator input exceeds or falls below a threshold voltage applied to a second comparator input of the comparator/latch circuit.
