Abstract:
1. A photoelectric conversion device comprising: a common output line; a sensor cell unit configured to output a signal obtained by photoelectric conversion in a photoelectric converter, to said common output line; a transfer circuit unit connected to said common output line; a first memory cell unit connected to said common output line; a second memory cell unit connected to said common output line; and a third memory cell unit connected to said common output line, wherein said first memory cell unit holds a reset noise signal originating from resetting of the photoelectric converter, wherein said third memory cell unit holds a reset noise signal, the reset noise signal being a reset noise signal held by said first memory cell unit and output from said first memory cell unit, wherein said second memory cell unit holds a reset noise signal, that reset noise signal being a reset noise signal held by said third memory cell unit and output from said third memory cell unit, and wherein said transfer circuit unit holds a signal obtained by adding a reset noise signal held by and output from said second memory cell unit to a signal output from said sensor cell unit.
