Pixel noise suppression via SoC management of tapered reset in a 1920× 1080 CMOS image sensor

[...] we suppress photodiode kTC noise using a SoC implementation for progressive reset; supporting SoC components include a feedback amplifier having elements distributed amongst the pixel and column buffer, a tapered reset clock waveform, and reset timing generator.
