Abstract
According to information input through a keyboard, an X-ray irradiation condition selecting portion selects an X-ray irradiation condition, retrieves a correspondence table according to this X-ray irradiation condition so as to read out a gain control state suitable for an irradiation condition, and drives an analog SW setting portion. According to a signal from the analog SW setting portion, an integration capacity of an initial stage integration amplifier is changed over. Further, according to other mode, accumulated electric charge Q of a picture element Cp is read out on a signal line and converted to a voltage Vo by the integration amplifier. By appropriately determining a sampling time by a sample/hold circuit after electric charge is read out, an influence of a switching element resistance can be excluded from a voltage Vx. Therefore, the voltage Vx can be sample held stably. Further, because the integration circuit has a characteristic of damping a high frequency noise generated in the integration amplifier, the S/N ratio of the voltage Vx can be improved.
