ABSTRACT:
To provide a solid-state image pickup device and a driving method thereof with which it is possible to remove fixed pattern noise without making the scale of circuits around the device large. First and second load capacitors 16a and 16b having the same capacitance are provided, MOS transistors 15a, 15b, which are first and second operating switches, are connected between a vertical signal line 13 and first ends of the first and second load capacitors 16a and 16b, a MOS transistor 18, which is a common operating switch, is connected between second ends of the first and second load capacitors 16a and 16b and a reference potential point (in this example, ground) and MOS transistors 17a and 17b, which are first and second horizontal switches, are connected between the second ends of the first and second load capacitors 16a and 16b and a horizontal signal line 19 and a bias line 20 at a predetermined potential.
