1. A solid-state imaging device, comprising:

  • a pixel array area in which an unit pixel including a photoelectric conversion element converting optical signals to signal charges and a transfer gate transferring the signal charges which have been photoelectrically converted in the photoelectric conversion element is two-dimensionally arranged in a matrix form;

    a supply voltage control means for supplying plural first control voltages sequentially to a control electrode of the transfer gate; and

    a driving means for performing driving of reading out signal charges transferred by the transfer gate when the plural first control voltages are sequentially applied twice and more.
