ABSTRACT:
An imaging apparatus for reducing power consumption. The apparatus includes a first regulator connected to a signal processing circuit and a second regulator connected to an output circuit. The first regulator generates a first regulated voltage that is in accordance with an output level of a solid-state image sensor. The second regulator generates a second regulated voltage that is in accordance with an input level of an external device.
