Abstract

PURPOSE: To set a sensitization time by a simple constitution without time lag, by enabling to read data when the average value of photoelectrically converted signal charge reaches a set value.
CONSTITUTION: Once pulse ϕT is outputted from pulse generating circuit 13, control gate 6 opens to read signal charge at photosensitive part 2. After accumulated voltage 4 reaches voltge VO, reset pulse ϕRS is held at level L and insulated from the voltage source connected to source terminal 17 of transistor Tr17. Then, signal charge is accumulated under electrode 4, so that electrode 4 changes in potential. This change in potential appears as output voltage VST of source follower circuit 10. As voltage VST drops gradually below reference voltage V2 of comparator 11, output voltage VC of circuit 11 varies. The change in voltage VC results in that pulses ϕRS and ϕT are outputted from pulse generating circuit 12 and 13 to repeat the said operation.
