Abstract

An image sensing device providing improved image quality includes a pixel array that outputs a pixel signal, a comparator that outputs a comparison result signal by comparing a reference signal and the pixel signal, a counter that outputs a count result signal having m bits by counting the comparison result signal, and an image signal processor that outputs an image signal having n bits by correcting the count result signal, wherein m and n are integers, and m is greater than n.
