    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a solid-state image sensing device, a drive method, and an electronic apparatus that are configured to suppress the color mixture of a phase difference detection signal to an image sensing signal. The solid-state image sensing device has a pixel area configured to be arranged with a plurality of pixels in which a first photoelectrical conversion section for photoelectrically converting a visible light of a first wavelength range and a second photoelectrical conversion section for photoelectrically converting a visible light of a second wavelength range are formed in different depths as viewed from a cross-sectional direction, and a drive section configured to execute a drive operation of reading each pixel signal having a level corresponding to charges generated in each of the first photoelectrical conversion section and the second photoelectrical conversion section from each of the above-mentioned plurality of pixels.
