SOLID-STATE IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE, METHOD FOR DRIVING SAME, AND IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE

摘要

Disclosed is a solid-state image pickup device (100), which is provided with: a plurality of pixel circuits (111) which are disposed in matrix; a plurality of vertical signal lines (103); a plurality of switch transistors (114); and a plurality of column amplifying units (115) which are connected to the vertical signal lines (103) via the switch transistors (114). Each of the pixel circuits (111) is provided with: a photodiode (PD1) wherein signal charges are accumulated; a floating diffusion (FD1); a transfer transistor (NM1) connected between the photodiode (PD1) and the floating diffusion (FD1); and an amplifying transistor (NM3). Furthermore, the solid-state image pickup device (100) is provided with a control unit (110), which turns off the switch transistor (114) in a transfer period wherein the signal charges are transferred from the photodiode (PD1) to the floating diffusion (FD1).
