Solid-state imaging device and driving method for a solid-state imaging device

摘要

A solid-state imaging device that enables more images to be photographed and a reading time to be shortened by effectively using storage cells is provided. By combining pieces of information which correspond to signal charges output from a photoelectric converter and are sequentially stored in storage cells, it is possible to store more pieces of information than the number of storage cells. Also, by reading the combined information stored in one storage cell, it is possible to read more pieces of information by a single reading operation.
