Abstract: An image sensor may include a plurality of pixels, a plurality of sub-pixel groups, respective ones of the sub-pixel groups including at least two pixels among the plurality of pixels, and an analog-to-digital converter configured to perform analog-to-digital conversion on pixel signals output from the plurality of sub-pixel groups and configured to output digital pixel signals responsive to the analog-to-digital conversion. The at least two pixels may have different saturation times.
