Abstract:
An endoscope has an imaging unit at a distal end portion of an insert section, and a relay board including an imaging signal converter that converts imaging signals output from the imaging unit is provided inside the insert section. Here, a data transmission method of an imaging signal transmitted at least in a section from the imaging unit to the relay board is a low-amplitude differential transmission method.

Claim (Index 10):
An endoscope comprising:\n an insert section including a distal end portion; an imaging unit provided at the distal end portion and outputting a first imaging signal with a first transmission speed; an imaging signal converter provided inside the insert section, the imaging signal converter, which in operation, receives the first imaging signal, converts the first imaging signal into a second imaging signal and outputs the second imaging signal with a second transmission speed higher than or equal to the first transmission speed.
