Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a control device, a control method, and a solid-state imaging device that enable a larger number of shutter row addresses to be set at the same time. A vertical selection decoder and a latch circuit set shutter row addresses that identify rows of pixels for which an electronic shutter operation is performed, of pixels arranged in a matrix manner, on the basis of a start address and an end address of the shutter row addresses. The present disclosure is applicable to, for example, a CMOS image sensor that sets the shutter row addresses.
Claims6
A control device comprising:
- an address setting unit configured to set shutter row addresses that identify rows of pixels for which an electronic shutter operation is performed, of pixels arranged in a matrix manner, on the basis of a start address and an end address of the shutter row addresses.
A control method comprising:
- an address setting step of setting, by a control device, shutter row addresses that identify rows of pixels for which an electronic shutter operation is performed, of pixels arranged in a matrix manner, on the basis of a start address and an end address of the shutter row addresses.
A solid-state imaging device comprising:
- pixels arranged in a matrix manner;
- and
- an address setting unit configured to set shutter row addresses that identify rows of pixels for which an electronic shutter operation is performed, of the pixels arranged in a matrix manner, on the basis of a start address and an end address of the shutter row addresses.
