    摘要: An image capturing apparatus includes M detection elements, a readout circuit, and a control pulse providing circuit. Each of the M detection elements includes a detection pixel configured to detect incidence of a photon and a generation circuit configured to generate a readout request and data based on the detection of the photon in the detection pixel. The readout circuit is configured to receive the readout request and the data from each of the M detection elements. The control pulse providing circuit is configured to provide a control pulse to the M detection elements and the readout circuit. The readout circuit determines the generation circuit corresponding to the readout request and a generation timing at which the readout request is generated, based on a counter value of the time counter and the number of delay cycles included in the data corresponding to the received readout request.
