Solid-state image sensor, electronic apparatus, and control method of solid-state image sensor
Abstract:
To prevent the black dot phenomenon from occurring in a differential amplification-type solid-state image sensor. A signal-side amplifier transistor generates an output voltage corresponding to a signal current corresponding to one of a pair of differential input voltages by supplying the signal current from an output node to a common-phase node. A reference-side amplifier transistor supplies a reference current corresponding to the other one of the pair of differential input voltages to the common-phase node. A constant current source constantly controls a sum of the signal current and the reference current to be merged at the common-phase node. A bypass control unit connects the output node and the common-phase node and supplies the signal current having a value corresponding to a predetermined limit voltage to the common-phase node in a case in which the output voltage reaches the limit voltage.
