Abstract

PURPOSE:To cancel a clock noise and a dark current component with a scanning driving circuit, by providing a dummy compensation output line near an output line. CONSTITUTION:Charges generated at photo diodes 21-32 are given serially to an output line 101 with the scanning operation of a vertical shift register 4 and a horizontal shift register 5 and outputted to an output terminal 6a. On the other hand, a compensation output line 102 is formed in parallel with the output line 101 closingly, one end is connected to an output terminal 6b and another end is connected to a drain of an FET transistor 7. Thus, a clock noise induced on the output line 101 and the line 102 from the shift register 5 is a common mode component due to the same polarity and not present at an output terminal 10. Since the dark current on both the output lines 101 and 102 flows to both the output lines in the same direction, the current is not appeared on the output terminal 10.

Therefore, the noise induced from the horizontal shift register 5 to the output line 101 and the compensation output line 102 becomes a common mode component because it has the same polarity.
It can't happen. Further, the dark current on both outputs @ 101 and 102 also flows in the same direction on both output lines, so that it does not reach the output terminal 10. As a result, only the optical signal obtained from the photodiode section is outputted to the output terminal 10 as an output signal.
