Abstract

See full text

A backside-illuminated sensor includes a substrate, at least one lens and at least one pixel structure. The substrate has a front surface and a backside surface, and the lens is formed on the backside surface of the substrate and the pixel structure is formed on a pixel area included in the front surface of the substrate, where a projected area of the pixel area on the backside surface in a thickness direction of the substrate is covered by the lens. The pixel structure includes a first power node for receiving a first supply voltage, a second power node for receiving a second supply voltage different from the first supply voltage, a sensing element and a capacitor for noise reduction. The sensing element generates a sensing signal according to an incident luminance from the lens.
