SOLID-STATE IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the S/N ratio of low sensitivity pixels from deteriorating and to prevent the saturation of high sensitivity pixels by setting different exposure times between the low sensitivity pixels and the high sensitivity pixels. SOLUTION: This solid-state image pickup device 1 in which a plurality of first pixels 31 and a plurality of second pixels 41 having higher sensitivity than the first pixels 31 has first control signal lines 32 for controlling the first pixels 31 and second control signal lines 42 for controlling the second pixels 41, wherein the fist control signal lines 32 and the second control signal lines 42 are independently driven.
