Abstract

See full text

A CMOS image sensor used as a solid-state image sensing device includes a pixel circuit for outputting a voltage of a level corresponding to the illuminance, and an A/D converter for converting an output voltage of the pixel circuit into a digital signal. The resolution on the low illuminance side is higher than the resolution on the high illuminance side in the A/D converter. Thus, the dynamic range can be increased and the operation speed can be increased, compared to the case in which the resolution is constant independent of the illuminance.
