Abstract
A device and a method for controlling a photosensitive cell including a photodiode adapted to discharging into a read node via a MOS transfer transistor, the device being adapted to providing a signal for controlling the gate of the MOS transfer transistor to a first level for which the MOS transfer transistor is off or to a second level for which the MOS transfer transistor is on, including means for providing a transition control signal between the second level and the first level of determined average slope.
