Abstract

Solid-state imaging devices, methods of driving solid-state imaging devices, and electronic devices are disclosed. In one example, a solid-state imaging device includes a pixel array unit in which pixels are two-dimensionally arranged in a matrix. At least some pixel rows include a first signal line configured to transmit a drive signal for driving a first transfer transistor of a first pixel in units of microlenses having a color filter of a first color, a second signal line configured to transmit a drive signal for driving a second transfer transistor of a second pixel different from the first pixel, and a third signal line configured to transmit a drive signal for driving a third transfer transistor of a third pixel in units of microlenses having a color filter of a second color different from the first color.
