Abstract
A bar code reader has a CCD for producing an image signal, an amplifier for amplifying the image signal from the CCD and a digitalizing circuit for changing the image signal to binary signal. The CCD operates with an operating voltage Vcc less than 8 V. The amplifier has first and second operational amplifiers each having one voltage source terminal connected to Vcc of 5 V and the other voltage source terminal connected to ground. Also, the digitalizing circuit has a third operational amplifier having one voltage source terminal connected to Vcc of 5 V and the other voltage source terminal connected to ground.
