    Abstract: An infrared solid state imaging device includes an infrared detection element unit having heat sensitive pixels, an AD conversion unit which conducts analog-to-digital conversion on an infrared image signal obtained by the infrared detection element unit, and a digital signal processing unit which converts the image signal converted to a digital signal.
