Abstract
The invention relates to a detector device having pixels in a two-dimensional arrangement, the detector device comprising row pixels, a row readout wiring for each row of said row pixels and a column select wiring for each column of said row pixels, as well as column pixels, a column readout wiring for each column of said column pixels and a row select wiring for each row of said column pixels. Analog-to-digital converters adapted for row-parallel and column-parallel operation are connected to the readout wirings, and simultaneously one or more columns of row pixels for row parallel readout and one or more rows of column pixels for column parallel readout can be selected. The invention further relates to a positioning code and to a position detecting method.
