Abstract
An FIT solid state image sensor including an image section having an array of photosensitive elements, a storage section for temporarily storing signal charges transferred thereto from the image section, a plurality of vertical shift registers provided for respective vertical lines of the array, and a horizontal shift register for horizontally transferring the signal charges transferred vertically through the vertical shift registers. Clock pulses are applied to the vertical transfer registers during a line shift transfer period of transferring the signal charges from the storage section to the horizontal shift register. The voltage levels of the clock pulses are set to provide the same potential between the photosensitive elements arranged in odd horizontal lines of the array and the photosensitive elements arranged in even horizontal line of the array.
