Abstract
A solid-state imaging deviceA includes a CCD-type solid-state imaging elementhaving an imaging planeformed of M×N pixels that are two-dimensionally arrayed in M rows and N columns and N signal readout circuitsarranged on one end side in the column direction for each of the columns with respect to the planeand for outputting electrical signals according to the magnitudes of charges taken out of the respective columns, respectively, a C-MOS-type semiconductor elementfor digital-converting and sequentially outputting as serial signals electrical signals output from the circuitsfor each of the columns, a heat transfer memberhaving a main surfaceand a back surface, and a cooling blockprovided on the surface, and the semiconductor elementand the surfaceof the heat transfer memberare bonded to each other.
