Title: Innovations of Toshiyuki Sugita
Introduction
Toshiyuki Sugita is a prominent inventor based in Kanagawa, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of solid-state imaging technology. With a total of 6 patents to his name, Sugita continues to push the boundaries of innovation in imaging systems.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a solid-state imaging element, method of driving the same, and camera system. This invention includes pixel signal read lines and a pixel signal reading unit for reading pixel signals from a pixel unit via the pixel signal read line. The pixel unit consists of a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix form, with each pixel containing a photoelectric conversion element. A shared pixel is formed in the pixel unit, allowing an output node to be shared among multiple pixels. This design enables the selective output of pixel signals from the shared output node to the corresponding pixel signal read lines. The pixel signal reading unit sets a bias voltage for a load element connected to the pixel signal read line, ensuring that the current value is higher than that upon a reference bias voltage when there is no difference between added charge amounts during the addition of pixel signals.
