发明名称 Photodetector
摘要 According to an embodiment, a photodetector includes a plurality of photoelectric transducers, a plurality of resistors, and a plurality of resetting sections. Each of the photoelectric transducers is configured to output a detection signal resulting from conversion of received light into an electric charge. Each of the resistors is connected in series with an output end of a corresponding photoelectric transducer at one end of the resistor. Each of the resetting sections is connected in parallel with a corresponding resistor and configured to bring the output end of the corresponding photoelectric transducer to a reset level in response to the detection signal.

主权项 1. A photodetector comprising: a plurality of photoelectric transducers, each configured to output a detection signal resulting from conversion of received light into an electric charge; a plurality of resistors each connected to an output end of a corresponding photoelectric transducer in series; and a plurality of resetting sections each connected in parallel with a corresponding resistor and configured to bring the output end of the corresponding photoelectric transducer to a reset level in response to the detection signal, wherein each of the resetting sections is configured as a thin-film transistor in which a source and a gate are connected to the output end of the corresponding photoelectric transducer and a drain is connected to the other end of the corresponding resistor.
