Abstract
【解決手段】固体撮像装置1では、受光部10において複数個の画素部が2次元配列されており、各画素部Pm,nには2個のフォトダイオードPD1,PD2が含まれている。フォトダイオードPD1,PD2それぞれで発生した電荷は信号読出部20に入力され、その電荷量に応じた電圧値が信号読出部20から出力される。信号読出部20から出力された電圧値はAD変換部40に入力され、この入力電圧値に応じたデジタル値がAD変換部40から出力される。加算部50において、受光部10の各画素部Pm,nについて、該画素部に含まれる2個のフォトダイオードPD1,PD2それぞれで発生した電荷の量に応じてAD変換部40から出力されるデジタル値の総和が演算され、その総和値であるデジタル値が出力される。
