Time of flight sensing system and image sensor used therein

An image sensor included in a time-of-flight (TOF) sensing system, comprising:

• a pixel array including a plurality of pixels arranged in plural rows and plural columns, each pixel generating an amount of charge in response to an incident light;
• first driving circuitry configured to supply a first driving control signal to some pixels via some of the plural columns;
• and
• second driving circuitry configured to supply a second driving control signal to remaining pixels via remaining columns.

A time-of-flight (TOF) sensing system, comprising:

• an emitter configured to output a modulated signal having a set phase;
• an image sensor configured to receive a reflected signal which is inputted in response to the modulated signal reflected from an object;
• and
• a signal processor configured to determine a distance from the object based on a phase relationship between the modulated signal and the reflected signal,
• wherein the image sensor comprises:
• a pixel array including a plurality of pixels arranged in plural rows and plural columns, each pixel generating an amount of charge in response to the reflected signal;
• and
• first driving circuitry configured to supply a driving control signal to each pixel via the plural columns,
• wherein the first driving circuitry is configured to supply the driving control signal via one of odd and even columns.
