Abstract:
An image sensor includes: a readout circuit that reads out a signal to a signal line, the signal being generated by an electric charge resulting from a photoelectric conversion; a holding circuit that holds a voltage based on an electric current from a power supply circuit; and an electric current source including a transistor having a drain part connected to the signal line and a gate part connected to the holding circuit and the drain part, the electric current source supplying the signal line with an electric current generated by the voltage held in the holding circuit.

Claim (Index 8):
An image sensor, comprising:\n a first readout circuit that reads out a first signal to a first signal line, the first signal being generated by an electric charge resulting from a photoelectric conversion; a second readout circuit that reads out a second signal to a second signal line, the second signal being generated by an electric charge resulting from a photoelectric conversion; a first holding circuit that holds a voltage based on an electric current from a power supply circuit; a second holding circuit that holds a voltage based on the electric current from the power supply circuit; a first electric current source including a first transistor having a first drain part connected to the first signal line and a first gate part connected to the first holding circuit and the first drain part, the first electric current source supplying the first signal line with an electric current generated by the voltage held in the first holding circuit; and a second electric current source including a second transistor having a second drain part connected to the second signal line and a second gate part connected to the second holding circuit and the second drain part, the second electric current source supplying the second signal line with an electric current generated by the voltage held in the second holding circuit.
