Abstract
Provided is a solid-state imaging element provided with a comparator for each column, the solid-state imaging element improving the image quality of image data. The solid-state imaging element includes a first comparison element and a transistor. An input voltage related to the voltage of a vertical signal line is input to a source of the first comparison element, and the first comparison element outputs a drain voltage corresponding to the gate-source voltage from a drain. A signal corresponding to the voltage of the vertical signal line is input to a gate of the transistor, and a source of the transistor is connected to the drain of the first comparison element.
