An imaging apparatus capable of reducing a line noise artifact in a simple
configuration without complicated operations includes: a plurality of
pixels arranged in row and column directions and having a photoelectric
conversion element and a switch element; a plurality of signal wirings
connected to the plurality of switch elements in the column direction; a
read out circuit connected to the plurality of signal wirings; and a
power source for supplying a voltage to the photoelectric conversion
element. With the configuration, the plurality of pixels are classified
into a plurality of groups, and the power sources are independently
provided for each of the plurality of groups.
