Patent ID: 8780244

Claim:
An image pickup apparatus comprising: a plurality of photoelectric conversion units; and a power supply line configured to supply a power supply voltage, wherein the plurality of the photoelectric conversion units include first and second photoelectric conversion units configured to receive incident light having a wavelength in a first wavelength range and a third photoelectric conversion unit configured to receive incident light having a wavelength in a second wavelength range, wherein the first, second, and third photoelectric conversion units are arranged along a first direction so that the first photoelectric conversion unit is adjacent to the second photoelectric conversion unit, and the second photoelectric conversion unit is adjacent to the third photoelectric conversion unit, wherein the power supply line includes a first conductive member disposed along the first direction and a second conductive member disposed along a second direction that intersects the first direction, wherein the second conductive member is disposed on a region between the second photoelectric conversion unit and the third photoelectric conversion unit, wherein a first transistor corresponding to the first photoelectric conversion unit and a second transistor corresponding to the second photoelectric conversion unit are electrically connected to the power supply line, wherein the plurality of the photoelectric conversion units include a fourth photoelectric conversion unit disposed adjacent to the second photoelectric conversion unit in the second direction, and wherein a third transistor corresponding to the fourth photoelectric conversion unit is connected to the power supply line.
