Abstract:

Disclosed is a sensor device comprising: a two-dimensional array of sensor pixel circuits, wherein the two-dimensional array includes a first axis and second axis, and wherein the two-dimensional array includes more sensor pixel circuits along the second axis than along the first axis; a gate drive circuit disposed along on the first axis of the two-dimensional array configured to drive one or more sensor pixel circuits; and, a readout circuit disposed along on the first axis of the two-dimensional array configured to receive output information from the one or more sensor pixel circuits.
