Abstract

A solid state imaging deviceincludes a photodetecting section, a signal readout section, a controlling section, and a correction processing section. In the photodetecting section, M×N pixel portions each including a photodiode which generates charges as much as an incident light intensity and a readout switch connected to the photodiode are two-dimensionally arrayed in M rows and N columns. Charges generated in each pixel portion Pare input into an integration circuit Sthrough a readout wiring L, and a voltage value output corresponding to the charge amount from the integration circuit Sis output to an output wiring Lthrough a holding circuit H. In the correction processing section, correction processing is performed for frame data repeatedly output from the signal readout section, and frame data after being subjected to the correction processing is output.
