Abstract:
An apparatus includes a plurality of pixels, a plurality of circuits arranged correspondingly to the plurality of pixels, and an output line connected to the plurality of circuits. Each of the circuits generates a signal by converting an analog signal at a first conversion rate and a signal by converting, at a second conversion rate, the analog signal used for generating the signal converted at the first conversion rate. The circuit has a signal obtaining unit configured to obtain a difference signal corresponding to a difference between a signal converted at the first conversion rate and a signal converted at the second conversion rate.

Claim (Index 11):
The apparatus according to  claim 9 , wherein the counter repeats an operation for bringing from a first value to a second value for counting of the clock signal in a case where the AD conversion is performed on the analog signal by using the first ramp signal.
