The disclosure relates to a process of controlling a pixel cell of an image sensor of the CMOS type, comprising the steps of: initializing a sense node and a read node of the pixel cell; partially transferring electrical charges accumulated at the sense node to the read node; completely evacuating electrical charges accumulated at the read node; partially transferring electrical charges accumulated at the sense node to the read node; measuring the electrical charges accumulated at the read node to obtain a pixel signal corresponding to a quantity of electrical charges accumulated during a short integration period; completely transferring electrical charges accumulated at the sense node to the read node, without a prior initialization of the read node, and measuring the electrical charges at the read node to obtain a pixel voltage corresponding thus to the sum of the electrical charges accumulated during the short and long integration periods.
