摘要： The present disclosure relates to a solid-state image sensing apparatus, a control method, and an electronic device capable of reducing a settling time of a vertical signal line at the time of a read operation of pixels. A column processing unit A/D converts pixel signals of a plurality of pixels. A vertical signal line feeds the pixel signals output from the pixels to the A/D converter. A pull-up circuit increases a potential of the vertical signal line at the time of starting a read operation of the pixels. For example, the present disclosure can be applied to a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) image sensor that performs an interleaving operation or the like.

摘要： A solid-state imaging device that outputs a pixel signal having a signal level corresponding to charges generated by a photoelectric conversion includes a comparator. The comparator has a first amplifying unit with first and second transistors configured as a differential pair and provides a signal output by amplifying a difference of signals input to the gate electrodes of the first and second transistors. It also has a second amplifying unit that amplifies the signal output, a first condenser disposed between the gate electrode of the first transistor and a reference signal supply, a second condenser disposed between the gate electrode of the second transistor and pixel signal wiring that reads out the pixel signal, and a switching circuit that connects the reference signal supply to the pixel signal wiring.

摘要： Disclosed is a solid-state imaging device including a pixel array, a pixel signal generation part, and a control part. The pixel signal generation part includes a comparator and a counter. In a case where an enable signal is supplied from the control part, a count value of the counter in a D-phase period where a signal level is detected is set as a limit value regardless of an output of the comparator when a count value of the counter in a P-phase period where a reset level is detected is a limit value.
