A new Dark Current Suppression (DCS) CMOS readout circuits for large format Quantum-Well-Infrared Photo-detector (QWIP) Focal-Plane-Array (FPA) with novel CorrelatedDouble-Sampling (CDS) structure based on dynamic source-follower are proposed, which can overcome the drawbacks of the present techniques, such as sensitive to the non-uniformity of the QWIP materials, poor readout noise features, low frame frequency, limited injection efficiency and dynamic range, etc. The dummy is adopted to realize dark current suppression, while the integration time. Through the novel CDS structure, the output waveform is boxcar, and the frame frequency is increased. Simulation results demonstrate that, in high background sense, the proposed DCS circuit can suppress the dark current, achieve good readout performance, such as low power consumption, high charge sensitivity, high resolution, large dynamic range, and insensitive to the non-uniformity of the QWIP materials.
