Abstract
In an imaging device that transmits control signals to a large number of pixels, an influence is reduced of delay at the time of signal transmission. An imaging device drive circuit includes a plurality of control signal lines, a control signal distribution line, two control signal transmission units, and two operation units. The plurality of control signal lines each transmits a control signal for each of a plurality of pixels that generates image signals depending on incident light on the basis of the control signal. The control signal distribution line has a shape of a line, and the plurality of control signal lines is connected thereto in a distributed manner, and the control signal distribution line distributes the control signals supplied from both ends of the line to the plurality of control signal lines.
