Abstract:
An imaging device includes: a pixel array including first and second pixels, each pixel including a photoelectric converter converting light into charge and a detection circuit detecting the charge; a first voltage supply circuit supplying a first voltage to the first pixel such that an electric potential of the first electrode is set to a first electric potential at a point of time at which a charge accumulation period for the first pixel starts; a second voltage supply circuit supplying a second voltage to the second pixel such that an electric potential of the first electrode of the second pixel is set to a second electric potential different from the first electric potential at a point of time at which a charge accumulation period for the second pixel starts; and an addition circuit adding together signals generated in the first and second pixels.
