Solid-state imaging device and electronic apparatus with increased length of amplifying portion
Abstract:
A solid-state imaging device includes pixels each of which has a photoelectric conversion portion that senses light and converts the sensed light into a charge; and an amplifying portion which is shared by a predetermined number of the pixels, amplifies the generated charge in the photoelectric conversion portion, and outputs a level of signal corresponding to the charge, wherein the a predetermined number of the pixels which share the amplifying portion are arranged in a first direction extending along a signal line via which the amplifying portion outputs the signal, and wherein a length of an area where the amplifying portion is formed along a second direction substantially intersecting the first direction is set to be equal to or more than a length of one pixel and to be less than a length of two pixels in the second direction.
