Abstract
A linear image sensor is constituted to include a red diode line, a green diode lineand a blue diode line, and the green diode linepositioned between the red diode lineand the blue diode lineis provided with a shift of an approximately ½ pitch in the vertical direction of a photodiode as shown. Electric charge transfer channelsandfor transferring signal charges detected by the photodiodes are formed close to the red diode line, the green diode lineand the blue diode linerespectively, and take a winding shape extended in a main scanning direction. Signal charges read onto the electric charge transfer channelsandare transferred in the main scanning direction and are output from output ends OUT, OUTand OUT
