Abstract
A one-to-one image sensing device having a plurality of photo-receiving elements formed on a substrate in a single array is provided. Each of the photo-receiving elements includes a photodiode and a blocking diode which are connected in series and opposite in direction. These photo-receiving elements are manufactured by the well-known thin-film technology. The photo-receiving elements are grouped into blocks each of which has a predetermined number of photo-receiving elements which are commonly connected on one side. A single shift register is commonly connected to the other side of each of said blocks. A MOS transistor switch is provided between the common junction of each of said blocks and an output terminal of the image sensing device.
