Abstract:
An image sensor including a row driver configured to provide, at a first time, a control signal to first pixels in a first group having n consecutive odd horizontal lines, provide, at a second time, the control signal to pixels in a second group having n consecutive even horizontal lines, and provide, at a third time, the control signal to pixels in a third group having n consecutive odd horizontal lines, and having a first horizontal line next to a last horizontal line of the first group, wherein each of the n horizontal lines of the first group is separated by an at least three-row interval from a corresponding one of the n horizontal lines of the second group, and a time interval between the first time point and the second time point is equal to a time interval between the second time point and the third time point.
