一、課程說明(Course Desc<x>ription)
<br>This course is organized on selected topics in the design and analysis of 
<br>mixed-signal IC design for CMOS image sensor. It covers quantitative analyses, 
<br>design considerations and system applications from circuit and architecture 
<br>viewpoints. Starting with an introduction of fundamentals of CIS, a variety of 
<br>smart CMOS imagers with different operations and structures will be discussed. For 
<br>application-wise design, sensor technologies like high dynamic range, low power, 
<br>low noise, and depth sensing etc. will be included. The mixed-signal IC design 
<br>and implementation of selected key blocks in CIS including analog-font-end (AFE) 
<br>and analog-to-digital converter are covered.
