Title:
シフトレジスタ、及び同シフトレジスタを用いた固体撮像装置、カメラ
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4298685
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The present invention provides a solid state image sensor and a camera using such a solid state image sensor, in which all of stage registers of the shift register can be reset efficiently without increasing the number of pads and/or sensor pins. The solid state image sensor comprises a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements 31 arranged in a two-dimensional array, a vertical shift register 503 disposed in a column direction and a horizontal shift register 504 disposed in a row direction and is characterized in that a timing for controlling resetting means for a first stage register of the shift register differs from a timing for controlling a second stage register and subsequent stage registers. Further, as a concrete example, the second stage register and subsequent stage registers are rest by a pulse for driving the shift register and the first stage register is reset by a pulse in which a high level is reached only upon power ON.
