Abstract
A method of operating an image sensor having a pixel array is provided. The method can include outputting a row control signal to a row of pixels in the pixel array at a first time, sampling a first output signal from a first pixel in the row of pixels at a second time, and sampling a second output signal from a second pixel in the row of pixels at a third time after the second time. The row control signal can arrive at the first pixel in the row of pixels a first row propagation delay after the first time. The row control signal can arrive at the second pixel in the row of pixels a second row propagation delay after the first time. The difference between the second and third times may be equal to the difference between the first and second row propagation delays.
