AB - This paper presents a 32×32 ISFET sensing array with in-pixel digitisation for pH sensing. The in-pixel digitisation is achieved using an inverter-based sensing pixel that is controlled by a triangular waveform. This converts the pH response of the ISFET into a time-domain signal whilst also increasing dynamic range and thus the ability to tolerate sensor offset. The pixels are interfaced to a 15-bit asynchronous column-wise time-to-digital converter (TDC), enabling fast sensor readout whilst using minimal silicon area. Parallel output of 32 TDC interfaces are serialised to achieve fast data though-put. This system is implemented in a standard 0.18 μm standard CMOS technology, with a pixel size of 26 μm × 26 μm and a TDC of 26 μm × 180 μm. Simulation results demonstrate that chemical sampling of up to 5k frames per second can be achieved with a clock frequency of 160 MHz and a TDC resolution of 190 ps. The total power consumption of the overall system is 7.34 mW.
