Abstract

See full text

Sampling systems and methods that enable a photodetector to be sampled and read concurrently are described. This scheme may be used to implement a photocell in which image data from the photodetector may be collected during readout. In this way, the substantial non-integration periods that often characterize sampling schemes in which the sampling and readout functions are performed sequentially, especially when operating in a shuttered, non-rolling imaging mode, may be avoided.
