Title:
SOLID-STATE IMAGING ELEMENT, TEST SYSTEM, AND CONTROL METHOD FOR SOLID-STATE IMAGING ELEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/187684
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A solid-state imaging element that detects address events and facilitates determination of abnormalities. A solid-state imaging element that comprises a photoelectric conversion element, a test signal supply part, a selection part, and a comparator. The photoelectric conversion element converts incident light into an electrical signal by means of photoelectric conversion. The test signal supply part supplies, as a test signal, a signal that changes as time passes. The selection part selects the electrical signal or the test signal. The comparator compares the signal selected by the selection part with a prescribed threshold value and outputs the comparison results.
