A system and method utilizing an imaging device able to distribute readout paths for pixel signals in a captured image. The device includes a pixel array organized into a plurality of sets of pixels, each pixel in each set of pixels operable to store a signal corresponding to a respective light level. The device further includes a readout circuit having a plurality of readout paths coupled to the pixel array, each readout path operable to read the signal stored in a corresponding pixel in a set of pixels, each readout path corresponding to one pixel during a readout phase for each set of pixels. The device further includes a readout path selection circuit coupled to the readout circuit and operable set a pattern for matching one readout path to one pixel for each set of pixels for each readout phase, the pattern differing from set to set. |
