IN5350 – CMOS Image Sensor Design

After completing this course, you´ll have:

• basic knowledge of analog and digital circuits used in cameras
• basic knowledge of construction and analyzation of pixels and readout circuits in CMOS
• basic knowledge of digital image signal processing blocks such as black level compensation, noise filtering, color processing, and output tone mapping
• basic knowledge of high dynamic range image sensors
• basic knowledge of simulation and modelling of imaging sensor output
• understanding of how noise and signal-to-noise ratio define image quality

Students admitted at UiO must apply for courses in Studentweb. Students enrolled in other Master's Degree Programmes can, on application, be admitted to the course if this is cleared by their own study programme.

If you are not already enrolled as a student at UiO, please see our information about admission requirements and procedures for international applicants.

IN5350 and IN9350 will be assessed together in regards to the number of admissions, with priority given to PhD candidates with IN9350 in an approved study plan.

2 hours of lectures per week, followed by 1 hour with mandatory group exercises each week.

The course includes a mandatory image sensor relevant design project where the student can choose either analog design project, digital design project, or algorithm design project. Submission and approval of the mandatory project assignment must be done prior to the exam.

Read more about requirements for submission of assignments, group work and legal cooperation under guidelines for mandatory assignments.

Oral or 4 hours written digital exam, dependent on the number of students.

All mandatory assignments must be approved prior to the exam.

It will also be counted as one of your three attempts to sit the exam for this course, if you sit the exam for one of the following courses: IN9350 – CMOS Image Sensor Design, INF5442 – Image Sensor Circuits and Systems (continued), INF9442 – Image Sensor Circuits and Systems (continued), INF5441 – CMOS billedsensor (continued)
