摘要

A ramp signal output circuit configured to output a ramp signal having a potential varying depending on time includes a voltage supply unit configured to supply a plurality of voltages having different amplitudes, a current supply unit, an integration circuit configured to output the ramp signal, and a capacitive element. The voltage supply unit is electrically connected to one terminal of the capacitive element. The integration circuit and the current supply unit are electrically connected to another terminal of the capacitive element.
