Solid-state imaging device and camera system with pseudo-thinning-out processing
Abstract:
A solid-state imaging device includes: a pixel section in which a plurality of pixels converting optical signals into electric signals and accumulating the electric signals in accordance with an exposure period are arranged in a matrix shape; and a pixel driving section that is able to drive the pixel section to perform reset thereof and accumulate and output the electric signals, wherein the pixel driving section includes a vertical reading function of alternately reading pixel columns for which addition is vertically performed and pixel columns for which the addition is not performed, and a column reading function of changing the addition and normal reading whenever reading each single row in response to scanning of the vertical reading circuit, and the pixel driving section performs pseudo thinning-out reading addition equivalent to thinning-out by reading all pixels without thinning out pixels in a reading target row.
