Image sensor device

An image sensor device, comprising:

• a plurality of pixels arranged along a plurality of row lines and a plurality of column lines, each of the plurality of pixels comprising a first photodiode having a first light-receiving area, a second photodiode having a second light-receiving area smaller than the first light-receiving area, and a pixel circuit connected to the first photodiode and the second photodiode;
• a peripheral circuit configured to execute a first shutter operation, a first exposure operation for a first time, a first readout operation, a second shutter operation, a second exposure operation for a second time shorter than the first time, and a second readout operation for the plurality of pixels in sequence;
• and
• a signal processor configured to obtain image data by processing a pixel signal output by the peripheral circuit,
• wherein the peripheral circuit, while executing the first readout operation for each of first pixels arranged along a first row line among the plurality of row lines, is further configured to execute the second shutter operation for the first photodiode and the second photodiode included in each of second pixels arranged along a second row line different from the first row line.

An image sensor device, comprising:

• a sensor comprising a plurality of pixels, and a peripheral circuit configured to execute a first shutter operation, a first exposure operation, a first readout operation, a second shutter operation, a second exposure operation and a second readout operation in sequence for the plurality of pixels;
• and
• a processor comprising:
• a signal processor configured to obtain first data by processing a first pixel signal obtained by the first readout operation by the peripheral circuit, and obtain second data by processing a second pixel signal obtained by the second readout operation by the peripheral circuit, and
• an interface circuit configured to transmit the first data and the second data to an external device,
• wherein the first data has a first resolution and the second data has a second resolution lower than the first resolution, and
• wherein the interface circuit is further configured to alternately transmit at least a portion of a plurality of first line data included in the first data and at least a portion of a plurality of second line data included in the second data.
