Abstract:
A solid-state image pickup device including a plurality of pixels and a scanning unit. Each pixel includes a photoelectric conversion element and a charge accumulation region. The scanning unit is configured to read a first signal from a charge accumulation region. The scanning unit is configured to read a second signal from the charge accumulation region. The first signal corresponds to an accumulation of signal charges during a first period, while the second signal corresponds to another accumulation of signal charges during a second period.
