Abstract

The present technology relates to a solid-state imaging device, a driving method, and an electronic apparatus that can suppress a decrease in signal reading speed of the solid-state imaging device. A solid-state imaging device according to a first aspect of the present technology includes a pixel array unit in which a plurality of pixels is arrayed, a signal processing unit configured to perform a signal process including at least A/D conversion on a noise signal and a data signal read from the pixel, and a memory unit configured to retain a signal obtained in the signal process, in which the signal processing unit records the noise signal obtained from a predetermined frame in the memory unit, and performs the signal process of the data signal obtained from a frame after the predetermined frame by using the noise signal recorded in the memory unit.
