• abstract: A light-sensitive PMOS-transistor located in a floating n-well and combined with an analog EEPROM has been fabricated as a single element in a standard 1.5 /spl mu/m single-poly CMOS/EEPROM technology. It provides nonvolatile weighted analog image storage and can be programmed in parallel, if implemented as an array. As an example, an image sensor with a nonvolatile analog programmable offset and sensitivity adjustment has been realised.
