Abstract
A photoelectric conversion device includes pixel circuits arranged to form a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, and a control circuit for driving the pixel circuits. Each of the pixel circuits includes a signal generation circuit including a photoelectric conversion portion, a memory that holds a signal output from the signal generation circuit, and a sequential circuit including a first input node to which the signal from the memory is input, a second input node to which a control signal from the control circuit is input, a third input node, and an output node. The pixel circuits include first and second pixel circuits arranged in the same row or the same column, and the output node of the sequential circuit of the first pixel circuit is connected to the third input node of the sequential circuit of the second pixel circuit.
