FIG. 12A illustrates pixel circuits 10 of the a1-th row to the a4-th row, the e1-th to the h4-th column. FIG. 12A further illustrates electric circuits 20 of the p-th to s-th rows and the v-th row and w-th column. Referring to FIG. 12A, references such as signal R11, Gr11 are given to signals generated by the pixel circuits 10. References R, B, Gr, Gb corresponds to colors represented by signals, and R is red color, B is blue color, and Gr and G are green color though colors represented by signals are not limited thereto. The connection relationship between pixel circuit 10 and electric circuit 20 is the same as that of the first to seventh embodiments.
While signals are processed in parallel in a plurality of electric circuits 20, signals are read out from a plurality of electric circuit 20 by sequentially selecting electric circuits 20 to output signals.
