A ramp section generates a reference signal. A comparison section compares an analog signal to the reference signal, and terminates a comparison process at a timing at which the reference signal has satisfied a predetermined condition for the analog signal. A main count section performs a count operation and outputs a count value. A latch section latches a second count value at a second timing related to the end of the comparison process corresponding to a second analog signal after latching a first count value at a first timing related to the end of the comparison process corresponding to a first analog signal. A column count section sequentially counts values of bits constituting the second count value retained in the latch section after an initial value has been set on the basis of values of bits constituting the first count value retained in the latch section.
