Zusammenfassung: | A solid-state imaging apparatus includes: an overflow element group that accumulates a signal charge that overflows from a photodiode; and a floating diffusion layer that selectively holds a signal charge transferred from the photodiode and a signal charge transferred from the overflow element group. The overflow element group includes m groups (m≥2) connected in series in stages, each group including an overflow element and a storage capacitive element. An overflow element among the groups transfers, to the storage capacitive element included in the same group as the overflow element, a signal charge that overflows from the photodiode or a signal charge from an upstream storage capacitive element among the groups. |
