    摘要: There is provide a photoelectric conversion device. In a first mode, a control unit performs control such that a signal output from each of a plurality of pixels is held in a corresponding holding unit. In a second mode, the control unit performs control of outputting a signal from the holding unit corresponding to a pixel in a first column and control of holding a signal based on a pixel in the first column in the holding unit corresponding to a pixel in a second column in parallel in the same period.

    摘要: Since a failure related to an output from a sensor is not detected from an image signal and a failure of the sensor is not detected from an output from the sensor in a system including the sensor for abnormality detection, it is not possible to perform the abnormality detection and to indicate the abnormality to the outside of the system.
    An apparatus includes a pixel area including multiple pixels, multiple sensors, a processing unit that compares signals based on outputs from the multiple sensors with each other, an output unit that outputs information based on a result of comparison.

    摘要: A device has stacked first and second substrates. The first substrate includes pixel array having pixels arranged along surface, the second substrate includes readout circuit having first AD-conversion circuit for generating first digital signals corresponding to first signals from the pixels, first parallel-serial conversion circuit for outputting first serial signal by performing parallel-serial conversion on the first digital signals, and processing circuit for processing the first serial signal. In orthogonal projection to the surface, part of the pixel array and part of the processing circuit overlap with each other. The first AD-conversion circuit is arranged between edge of the second substrate and the processing circuit. The first parallel-serial conversion circuit is arranged between the first AD-conversion circuit and the processing circuit.

    摘要: An imaging device includes pixels each including a photoelectric converter generating charges, a holding portion holding charges transferred from the photoelectric converter, and an amplifier unit outputting a signal based on charges transferred from the holding portion. Each pixel outputs, to an output line, a signal based on charges generated by the photoelectric converter during an exposure period including a first period during which the photoelectric converter holds charges generated in the first period and a second period during which the photoelectric converter or the holding portion holds charges generated in the second period while the holding portion is holding charges generated in the first period, and resets the holding portion after outputting a signal based on charges held in the holding portion in the first period and before transferring charges generated in the first period from the photoelectric converter to the holding portion.
