Image capturing device

摘要

An image capturing device includes a first substrate and a second substrate that are stacked in stages; a pixel section in the first substrate in which a plurality of pixels outputting signals according to incident physical quantities are disposed in a matrix form; a first AD conversion circuit in the first substrate for every column or every plurality of columns of pixels performing AD conversion on signals output by pixels; a connector that electrically connects the first substrate and the second substrate; a second AD conversion circuit in the second substrate for every column or every plurality of columns of pixels and performing AD conversion on signals output by pixels and inputting through the connector; and a controller in the first substrate or the second substrate and supplying a control signal to the first AD conversion circuit and the second AD conversion circuit.

1. An image capturing device in which a first substrate and a second substrate are stacked in stages, the image capturing device comprising:
a pixel section which is configured in the first substrate and in which a plurality of pixels outputting signals according to incident physical quantities are disposed in a matrix form; a first analog-digital (AD) conversion circuit which is disposed in the first substrate for every column or every plurality of columns of pixels and performs AD conversion on signals output by at least some of the pixels; a connector which electrically connects the first substrate and the second substrate; a second AD conversion circuit which is disposed in the second substrate for every column or every plurality of columns of pixels and performs AD conversion on signals output by at least some of the pixels and input through the connector; and a controller which is configured in the first substrate or the second substrate and supplies a control signal to the first AD conversion circuit and the second AD conversion circuit, wherein an area of the first substrate in which the first AD conversion circuit is disposed and an area of the second substrate in which the second AD conversion circuit is disposed overlap at least partially.
