Abstract
An image sensor includes a two-dimensional array of pixels having a photodetector for collecting charge in response to incident light; a storage region adjacent the photodetector that receives the charge from the photodetector; a sense node adjacent the storage region that receives the charge from the storage region and converts the charge to a voltage signal; and an input to an amplifier for sensing the voltage signal from the sense node.
