Semiconductor device including solid state image pickup device, and portable electronic apparatus

A semiconductor device having a pixel unit, said pixel unit comprising:

• a first photoelectric conversion element for converting incident light of a first color into signal charges;
• a second photoelectric conversion element for converting incident light of a second color into signal charges;
• a third photoelectric conversion element for converting incident light of a third color into signal charges;
• and
• a detector circuit shared by said first to third photoelectric conversion elements for detecting said signal charges converted by each of said first to third photoelectric conversion elements,
• wherein said first photoelectric conversion element and said detector circuit are disposed being juxtaposed along a first direction;
• said second photoelectric conversion element and said third photoelectric conversion element are disposed being juxtaposed along said first direction and adjacent to an array of said first photoelectric conversion element and said detector circuit;
• said second photoelectric conversion element and said detector circuit are disposed being juxtaposed along a second direction crossing said first direction;
• and
• said first photoelectric conversion element and said third photoelectric conversion element are disposed being juxtaposed along said second direction and adjacent to an array of said second photoelectric conversion element and said detector circuit.

A portable electronic apparatus mounting a semiconductor device, said semiconductor device comprising:

• a plurality of pixel units disposed in a matrix shape, each of said plurality of pixel units including:
• a first photoelectric conversion element for converting incident light of a first color into signal charges;
• a second photoelectric conversion element for converting incident light of a second color into signal charges;
• a third photoelectric conversion element for converting incident light of a third color into signal charges;
• and
• a detector circuit shared by said first to third photoelectric conversion elements for detecting said signal charges converted by each of said first to third photoelectric conversion elements,
• wherein said plurality of pixel units are pixel units adjacently disposing a row juxtaposing said first photoelectric conversion element and said detector circuit and a row juxtaposing said second photoelectric conversion element and said third photoelectric conversion element, or pixel units adjacently disposing a column juxtaposing said first photoelectric conversion element and said detector circuit and a column juxtaposing said second photoelectric conversion element and said third photoelectric conversion element.
