Zusammenfassung: | The present disclosure relates to a solid-state image capture element, a driving method, and an electronic device which are enabled to capture a high-quality image. In the solid-state image capture element, at least two or more of the discharge driving units are arranged in series between the photoelectric conversion unit and the discharge unit. During capturing of a still image, when a reset operation of the photoelectric conversion unit is performed in starting exposure of the pixel, driving is performed such that after potentials of all the discharge driving units arranged in series are reduced and the charge remaining in the photoelectric conversion unit is discharged to the discharge unit, the potential of the discharge driving unit on the photoelectric conversion unit side is returned to an original potential first, and then the potential of another discharge driving unit is returned to an original potential. The present technology can be applied to a CMOS image sensor which performs imaging by, for example, a global shutter method. |
