PIXEL

Figure 2: Pixel Architecture

An electronic representation of an image is formed when incident photons falling on the sensor plane create electron-

hole pairs within the individual silicon photodiodes. These photoelectrons are collected locally by the formation of

potential wells at each photosite. Below photodiode saturation, the number of photoelectrons collected at each pixel

is linearly dependent upon light level and exposure time and non-linearly dependent on wavelength. When the

photodiodes charge capacity is reached, excess electrons are discharged into the substrate to prevent blooming.
