Abstract:
An image capturing device includes a first substrate and a second substrate that are stacked in stages; a pixel section in the first substrate in which a plurality of pixels outputting signals according to incident physical quantities are disposed in a matrix form; a first AD conversion circuit in the first substrate for every column or every plurality of columns of pixels performing AD conversion on signals output by pixels; a connector that electrically connects the first substrate and the second substrate; a second AD conversion circuit in the second substrate for every column or every plurality of columns of pixels and performing AD conversion on signals output by pixels and inputting through the connector; and a controller in the first substrate or the second substrate and supplying a control signal to the first AD conversion circuit and the second AD conversion circuit.
