    摘要: A photoelectric conversion device having plural photoelectric conversion pixels includes an imaging unit, a position identifying unit, an interpolation determining unit, and an interpolation processing unit. The imaging unit generates image data for each of plural colors based on light received in the photoelectric conversion pixels. The position identifying unit detects in the photoelectric conversion pixels a defective pixel outputting an electrical signal at an abnormal level, and stores position information of the defective pixel. The interpolation deter mining unit determines, based on respective pixel values of peripheral pixels peripheral to the defective pixel, whether to perform an interpolation process on the defective pixel. The interpolation processing unit performs the interpolation process on the defective pixel when the interpolation determining unit determines to perform the interpolation process on the defective pixel. The interpolation process approximates the electrical signal of the defective pixel to an electrical signal at a normal level.

    摘要: A processing device includes: a control-signal generating unit that generates a control signal by switching a predetermined potential and a second potential that is different from the predetermined potential; multiple processing units that, if a potential of the control signal is the predetermined potential, flow a predetermined current, process and outputs an input signal, and if a potential of the control signal is the second potential, do not flow the predetermined current and do not process a signal; and a control unit that controls the control-signal generating unit such that, in a case of an operating mode in which the processing units process a signal, the control signal is a voltage signal of the predetermined potential, and in a case of a standby mode in which the processing units do not process a signal, the control signal is a voltage signal of the second potential.
