A smart camera which can be used for security or surveillance purpose requires high dynamic range of the sensor to cover broad illumination range of the scene. A stick- or badge-type smart camera operates as a stand-alone device so that the power consumption is one of the most important parameters. For applications such as nondestructive inspection using infrared (IR), sensitivity of the image sensors should be improved to obtain suitable SNR for reliableoutput.Thischapterdescribesbasicimagingprinciplesanddynamicrange expansion methods of the CMOS image sensors.

The design of the APS is flexible and various types of pixels have been developed for various applications including WDR imaging [1]. The performance of CMOS APS in areas of high-end digital imaging has been proven to be comparable to their CCD counterparts due to the abilityofon-chipimageprocessing[2].Imageprocessingtoacertaindegreecould be performed within the pixel itself by integrating signal processing circuitry in each pixel [3]. Further image processing can be done in the subsequent circuit stages before image information is read out [4].

The CCD offers guaranteed image quality because it uses optimized photodetectors for achieving low noise, low dark current, and high sensitivity [5]. The basic concept of CCD is a simple series connection of MOS capacitors. The individual capacitors are physically located very close to each other, which com- pose an analog shift register driving by two, three or four phase clocks for charge transfer. Figure 1 shows the simplified structure of an interline-transfer CCD. A charge transfer must occur at high enough rates to avoid image corruption by leakage, but slow enough rates to ensure high charge transfer efficiency [5]. The limitation of CCD technology comes mainly from insufficient charge transfer efficiency [6]. To avoid insufficient charge transfer, high-speed and high-voltageclockcontrolschemesinCCDincreasethesystemcomplexityandthe powerconsumption.AnothermajordrawbackinCCDtechnologyisthatperipheral circuits such as ADC cannot be integrated on the same chip. Nevertheless, understanding CCD technology is very important because CMOS image sensors (CISs) have been developed based on CCD.
