Zusammenfassung:An imaging device comprising: a pixel comprising a photoelectric converter and a reset transistor having a source and a drain one of which is electrically connected to the photoelectric converter; a first voltage generating circuit for generating a first voltage; a second voltage generating circuit for generating a second voltage identical or equivalent to the first voltage; and a first switching circuit having a first input terminal electrically connected to the first voltage generating circuit, a second input terminal electrically connected to the second voltage generating circuit, a first output terminal electrically connected to the other of the source and the drain of the reset transistor. The first switching circuit electrically connects one of the first and second input terminals to the first output terminal selectively in a period when the photoelectric converter is reset. The photoelectric converter is reset by use of the first voltage or the second voltage.
