<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image pickup unit, etc. capable of further improving quality of a picked-up image. <P>SOLUTION: An image pickup unit includes: an image pickup section including a plurality of pixels, each of the pixels including a photoelectric conversion device; and a driving section that includes an amplifier and drives each of the pixels to perform a read out operation intended to read out electric charge obtained by the photoelectric conversion device from the pixel as a signal by use of the amplifier, a pixel reset operation intended to reset electric charge in the pixel, and an amplifier reset operation intended to reset an operation of the amplifier. The driving section drives each of the pixels to allow one or both of end timing of the pixel reset operation and end timing of the amplifier reset operation not to be included in a predetermined power-source potential unstable period. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
