    Abstract: A photoelectric conversion apparatus in which a charge accumulated on a capacitor provided for each of a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements is matrix-transferred, and the matrix-transferred signal is serially output by switch array means.A matrix wiring unit for the matrix transfer is arranged on the side opposite to the photoelectric conversion elements so as not to cross signal lines extending from the capacitors.The switch array means comprises first switch means for sequentially transferring the matrix-­transferred signal, first readout means for reading out the input signal transferred by the first switch means, second switch means which is arranged in correspondence with the first switch means and is operated synchronously with the corresponding first switch means, second readout means for reading out an output from the second switch means, and differential amplifier means for receiving the outputs from the first and second readout means and outputting a signal corresponding a difference therebetween.

    Abstract: Each photosensor Sr1... in an array is connected in parallel with a FET switch STr1 ..., which is normally closed to by-pass the photosensor. The photoresistors in each column are connected in series. To read any photoresistor its associated switch is opened via a row conductor Tr, Tg, Tb and an output sensed at the base A1, A2,..., An of the column. Series connection allows fewer conductors to be used compared to the prior art (fig. 3). … In an alternative embodiment, each photoresistor and FET switch is replaced by a single photosensitive FET (fig. 7). … …

    Abstract: In a semiconductor device comprising a wiring to be connected to the source region 1105, 1106 or the drain region 1107, 1108 of a thin film, transistor X, at least a portion of the wiring comprises a wiring part Y having the same cross-sectional structure as said source region or said drain region. This wiring part is formed continuously and simultaneously with said source region or said drain region in such a manner that the edge thereof is set back from the end of the semiconductor layer constituting the thin film transistor. The layers comprise polycrystalline Si 1101, n+Si 1102 and Al, Mo or Cr 1103 on a glass or quartz substrate 1100.
