US Patent 11343459 Image sensing device and electronic device comprising the same

An image sensing device includes a pixel circuit, a readout circuit, and a row driver. The pixel circuit is configured to output a pixel signal in response to a selection signal. The readout circuit is configured to output a digital signal corresponding to the pixel signal, generate a gain control signal based on a first pixel signal received from the pixel circuit, provide the gain control signal to the pixel circuit, receive a second pixel signal output by the pixel circuit using the gain control signal, and output a digital signal corresponding to the second pixel signal. The row driver is configured to provide the selection signal to the pixel circuit while maintaining the selection signal at a first level while the readout circuit provides the gain control signal to the pixel circuit and the pixel circuit outputs the second pixel signal to the readout circuit.
