Abstract

An imaging device includes a pixel array including a plurality of pixel units in a matrix arrangement. At least a first pixel unit of the plurality of pixel units includes a substrate including a first photoelectric conversion region and a second photoelectric conversion region, and a first layer over the substrate and including a first pixel circuit and a second pixel circuit. The first pixel unit includes a second layer over the first layer and including first and second wirings extending in a first direction, and a third layer over the second layer and including signal lines that extend in the second direction. The first pixel unit includes a first via that couples a first signal line to the first wiring, and a second via offset from the first via in the first direction and that couples a second signal line to the second wiring.
