Abstract
A solid-state imaging element of the present disclosure includes a pixel. The pixel includes a charge accumulation unit that accumulates a charge photoelectrically converted by a photoelectric conversion unit, a reset transistor that selectively applies a reset voltage to the charge accumulation unit, an amplification transistor having a gate electrode electrically connected to the charge accumulation unit, and a selection transistor connected in series to the amplification transistor. Additionally, the solid-state imaging element includes a first wiring electrically connecting the charge accumulation unit and the gate electrode of the amplification transistor, a second wiring electrically connected to a common connection node of the amplification transistor and the selection transistor and formed along the first wiring, and a third wiring electrically connecting the amplification transistor and the selection transistor.
