Abstract:
The present technology relates to a solid-state imaging device and an electronic apparatus that can increase the theoretical yield of a chip. A pixel array is formed with pixels arranged in a matrix. A drive control unit is provided for each set of pixel rows in the pixel array. The drive control unit operates to simultaneously drive the pixels included in the set of pixel rows. The present technology can be applied to a CMOS image sensor including A/D converter circuits for each column in a pixel array.
