Abstract:
1. An imaging device for taking an image of an object, the imaging device comprising: an imaging sensor configured to capture an optical image of an object, and generate image data; a main circuit substrate disposed behind the imaging sensor, the main circuit substrate including a first ground conductor having a ground potential, the main circuit substrate configured to perform signal processing of the image data generated by the imaging sensor; an imaging sensor cable including a second ground conductor having a ground potential, wherein the imaging sensor cable has the imaging sensor mounted thereon, and is connected to the main circuit substrate; a metal plate that is disposed between the main circuit substrate and an area of the imaging sensor cable where the imaging sensor is mounted thereon, and that is in electrical contact with the second ground conductor; and a ground connection conductor that electrically connects between the first ground conductor and the metal plate, wherein the ground connection conductor is disposed in an area where the imaging sensor and the imaging sensor cable overlap each other along the optical axis of the imagining device or in an area where the imaging sensor and the main circuit substrate overlap each other along the optical axis of the imagining device.
