Abstract:
A solid-state image pickup device is provided which can inhibit degradation of image quality which may occur when a global electronic shutter operation is performed. A gate drive line for a first transistor of gate drive lines for pixel transistors is positioned in proximity to a converting unit.

Claim (Index 1):
An imaging device having an image sensing region in which a plurality of pixels are arranged in a matrix form, each of the pixels having a photoelectric converting unit, a first transfer transistor configured to transfer electric carriers in the photoelectric converting unit, a carrier accumulating portion configured to accumulate electric carriers transferred from the first transfer transistor, a second transfer transistor configured to transfer electric carriers from the carrier accumulating portion, a floating diffusion configured to accumulate electric carriers transferred from the second transfer transistor, a reset transistor configured to reset a potential of the floating diffusion, and an overflow transistor that discharges electric carriers of the photoelectric converting unit, comprising:\n a gate drive line for the first transfer transistor; a gate drive line for the reset transistor; a gate drive line for the overflow transistor; and a region where the gate drive line for the first transfer transistor, the gate drive line for the reset transistor, and the gate drive line for the overflow transistor extend in a first direction in a planar view, wherein, in the region, a line width of the gate drive line for the first transfer transistor and a line width of the gate drive line for the overflow transistor are greater than a line width of the gate drive line for the reset transistor.
