Abstract

A MOS-type solid-state imaging device is disclosed capable of high speed scanning. The imaging device includes a plurality of photodiodes arranged in a matrix form, a vertical scanning circuit, a horizontal scanning circuit, a first group of switching transistors and a second switching transistors. The imaging device enables multiple pixel signals to be simultaneously outputted without adversely effecting adjacent pixel signals during a scanning operations. A separating layer formed of an impurity layer held at a predetermined potential is embedded at least between two adjacent switching transistors, thereby separating the capacitive coupling between the two adjacent sets of switching transistors.
