    摘要: The analog-to-digital converter array 13 includes one analog-to-digital converter 210 for each row of photodetectors 120 in the photodetector array 11. The image-processing unit 14 includes the plurality of processing circuits 400 for performing high-speed image processing. The signal converter 17 combines the output signals from the analog-to-digital converter array 13 with output signals from the image-processing unit 14. Under control of the control circuit 15 and the signal conversion controller 19, the signal converter 17 downconverts the composite signal at an important timing to a frame rate suitable for display on the monitor 18 and subsequently displays the signal on the monitor 18.

    摘要: An encoder is provided as one capable of accurately detecting an absolute value of an operating angle or the like of a scale plate in a simple configuration.In this encoder, each of light relay portions 4 formed along an operational direction α in the scale plate has a pattern of a one-dimensional array of some of optically transparent potions 5 and optically nontransparent portions 6 different from those of the other light relay portions. This allows the encoder to identify the light relay portion 4 located on a light receiving region 100, based on second light intensity profile data VY(m), using the patterns as codes. In the identification of the light relay portion 4, the light relay portion 4 can be accurately identified with respect to a position of a reference light propagation portion 7 formed for each light relay portion 4 in the scale plate. Furthermore, the encoder is able to calculate a center-of-gravity position of the identified light relay portion 4 relative to a reference position in the light receiving region 100, based on first light intensity profile data VX(n), and to calculate an operating angle of the scale plate from the center-of-gravity position.

    摘要: There is provided a solid-state imaging device in which images can be read at high speed. Since an n-th processing circuit (e.g. PU1) can be connected to n-th pixel columns (N1) in respective imaging blocks B1, B2, and B3 via switches Q (1), Q (4), and Q (7), signals from the adjacent pixel columns (N2) are to be processed separately by another processing circuit (PU2) even when a partial readout area R may be small. In addition, an image data arithmetic section 10 specifies the partial readout area R restrictively, which allows for higher speed imaging.

    摘要: An encoder calculates an absolute value of an operating angle of a scale plate. The scale plate includes light relay portions formed along an operational direction α in the scale plate with a pattern of a one-dimensional array of optically transparent portions and optically nontransparent portions. The encoder identifies the light relay portion formed on a light receiving region, based on second light intensity profile data VY(m), and by using the patterns of optically transparent and optically nontransparent portions as codes. The position of a light relay portion can be accurately retrieved using reference positions for each light relay portion in the scale plate. The encoder calculates a center-of-gravity position of the identified light relay portion relative to a reference position in the light receiving region, based on first light intensity profile VX(n), and calculates an operating angle of the scale plate from the center-of-gravity position.

A first wire 44 is for electrically connecting the regions 41 on one side in each pixel across a first direction, and is provided extending in the first direction between the pixels.

    摘要: A current signal corresponding to the amount of incident light detected by a photoelectric conversion device 13 is inputted to and integrated by an integrator circuit 30, whereby a voltage signal is outputted from the integrator circuit 30. When a switch 40 is closed, the voltage signal outputted from the integrator circuit 30 is inputted to a capacitor 51 of a variable capacity integrator circuit 50, a change of the voltage signal is inputted to an amplifier 52, and an electric charge corresponding to the change of voltage signal and the capacity value of a variable capacity part 53 flows into the variable capacity part 53. The capacity value of the variable capacity part 53 is controlled by a comparator 60 and a capacity control section 70 such that the value of integrated signal outputted from the variable capacity integrator circuit 50 coincide with a reference value. The capacity control section 70 outputs a first digital signal corresponding to the capacity value of the variable capacity part 53. As a consequence, a solid-state imaging device which is excellent in S/N ratio, yields no offset errors even when its amplifier have offset fluctuations, and has a small circuit scale is obtained.

    摘要: Two charge quantities (Q1,Q2) are output from respective pixels P (m,n) of the back-illuminated distance measuring sensor 1 as signals d′(m,n) having the distance information. Since the respective pixels P (m,n) output signals d′(m,n) responsive to the distance to an object H as micro distance measuring sensors, a distance image of the object can be obtained as an aggregate of distance information to respective points on the object H if reflection light from the object H is imaged on the pickup area 1B. If carriers generated at a deep portion in the semiconductor in response to incidence of near-infrared light for projection are led in a potential well provided in the vicinity of the carrier-generated position opposed to the light incident surface side, high-speed and accurate distance measurement is enabled.
