Patent attributes
A photoelectric conversion device is provided. The device comprises a light receiving element, first and second transimpedance amplifiers configured to receive a signal of the light receiving element and output a voltage, a differential operation amplifier configured to perform a differential amplification for outputs of the first and second transimpedance amplifiers and a switching unit. The switching unit includes an output switching unit configured to switch connections between a first state where the light receiving element and the first transimpedance amplifier are connected and a second state where the light receiving element and the second transimpedance amplifier are connected, and a capacitance adjusting unit connected to an input terminal of each of the first and second transimpedance amplifiers and configured to adjust a capacitance value of the first and transimpedance amplifier and/or a capacitance value of the second transimpedance amplifier.
