ABSTRACT:
A time-multiplexed floating diffusion output amplifier provides two output signals with different gains for each signal charge packet by dynamically controlling the floating diffusion capacitance using two external reset clocks. Two correlated double sampling circuits separately remove the noise components associated with resetting the two different floating diffusion capacitance values.
