The invention relates to an X-Y address type solid-state image pickup
device manufactured by a CMOS process, and has an object to provide an
X-Y address type solid-state image pickup device in which a chip area is
not increased, manufacturing costs are suppressed, and an image averaging
processing can be carried out. Pixel regions Pmn are arranged in a matrix
form in regions defined by horizontal selection lines RWm and vertical
selection lines CLn. Each of the pixel regions Pmn includes a photodiode
10, a source follower amplifier 14 for converting an electric charge of
the photodiode 10 into a voltage and amplifying it to output image data,
and a horizontal selection transistor 16 for outputting the image data to
a predetermined one of the vertical selection lines CLn. An
amplifier/noise cancel circuit 6 has a built-in image averaging circuit
for carrying out an averaging processing of the image data outputted from
at least two of the plurality of the pixel regions Pmn.
