IMAGING ELEMENT AND CAMERA MODULE

摘要

Provided is an imaging element capable of performing imaging with an appropriate dynamic range even if the bright-dark difference in the imaging range is large. An imaging element (1) includes: a substrate (2); a plurality of first photo diodes (5) arranged to correspond to a plurality of pixels (3) on the substrate (2) to receive light coming to a first main surface (S1) and generate an electric charge in accordance with the received light quantity; and a plurality of second photo diodes (6) arranged to correspond to a plurality of pixels (3) on the rear side of the first photo diodes (5) to receive light which has come to the first main surface (S1) and has passed through at least one of the plurality of first photo diodes (5) and the substrate (2) and generate an electric charge in accordance with the received light quantity. An electric signal based on the electric charge generated by the plurality of first photo diodes (5) is added by an electric signal based on the electric charge generated by the second photo diodes (6) of the same pixel.
