Abstract:
A pixel array is provided in which cells are arranged in a matrix. Each cell includes a photodiode, an FD, a transfer transistor, a reset transistor, an amplifying transistor having a gate electrode connected to the FD, a drain connected to a power supply line, and a source connected to a vertical signal line, and an FD wire. The FD wire is provided in a first wiring line, and the vertical signal line is provided in a second wiring line positioned over the first wiring layer. Since the potential of the FD wire follows the potential of the vertical signal line, it is possible to suppress a variation in capacitance occurring in the FD when a position of the vertical signal is shifted, depending on a position of the cell.
