Abstract:
A pixel of an imager device includes a photosensitive area configured to integrate a light signal. A first capacitive storage node is configured to receive a signal representative of the number of charges generated by the photosensitive area. A second capacitive storage node is configured to receive a reference signal. A first transfer transistor is coupled between the first capacitive storage node and the photosensitive area. A second transfer transistor is coupled between the second capacitive storage node and a terminal which supplied the reference signal. The first and second two transfer transistors have a common conduction electrode and a common substrate, wherein the common substrate is coupled to the first capacitive storage node.
