SOLID-STATE IMAGING DEVICE, METHOD FOR DRIVING SOLID-STATE IMAGING DEVICE AND IMAGING APPARATUS

摘要

A solid-state imaging device includes: a pixel array unit formed of pixels two-dimensionally arranged in a matrix, each having a photoelectric converter, and outputs the signals read from the pixels in the pixel array unit in parallel on a multiple-column basis; control means for performing window cutting in which signals are read from the pixels in a specific area in the pixel array unit; and selection means for, when window cutting is performed by the control means on a column-address basis such that the window overlaps with the multiple-column unit, holding the signals read from the pixels in the present column-address unit and the signals read from the pixels in the preceding column-address unit, selecting consecutive signals on the multiple-column basis from the thus held signals of the present column-address unit and the preceding column-address unit and outputting the selected signals.
