Figure 5.4 4-tap lock-in pixel (<strong>with</strong> one output diffusion): Demodulation<br />

<strong>measurement</strong>s at 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° phase for different<br />

modulation frequencies (200 kHz-10 MHz, � sampling frequencies:<br />

800 kHz-40 MHz). Integration time: 0.5 ms, LED: 630 nm, square<br />

wave modulated, 50% duty cycle.<br />

Demodulation <strong>measurement</strong>s <strong>with</strong> the 4-tap lock-in pixel are shown in Figure 5.4<br />

for different modulation frequencies. We see from this figure that the demodulation<br />

works excellently for frequencies up to 1 MHz. For higher frequencies the contrast<br />

decreases and the 3 rd sampling point integrates an additional signal <strong>of</strong>fset, probably<br />

due to different transfer efficiencies <strong>of</strong> the single transfer gates.<br />
