Abstract
An imaging device includes a first pixel including a first photoelectric conversion region and a first amplification transistor, a second pixel adjacent the first pixel and including a second photoelectric conversion region and a second amplification transistor, and a first contact coupled to the first amplification transistor and the second amplification transistor, and that receives a power supply signal for the first amplification transistor and the second amplification transistor.
