Abstract

See full text

A noise reduction unit included in a sensor array of a multi aperture camera comprises: at least one programmable gain amplifier (PGA) that outputs a difference value between a reset voltage for at least one pixel included in the sensor array and a signal voltage for the at least one pixel, and/or respective values, as an analog signal for the at least one pixel; and at least one AD converter that converts the outputted analog signal for the at least one pixel to a digital signal for the at least one pixel and outputs the digital signal, wherein the at least one AD converter performs an over-sampling operation that samples the output signal of the at least one PGA for the at least one pixel multiple times and/or an averaging operation that calculates an average value for output signal of the at least one PGA which has been sampled multiple times.
