Abstract:
An image reading device includes an image reading chip that reads an image, and an optical unit that forms a reduced image of the image on the image reading chip. The image reading chip includes: a first pixel and a second pixel that performs photoelectric conversion, and generates a first pixel signal and a second pixel signal, respectively; a first readout circuit and a second read out circuit that is electrically connected to the first pixel and the second pixel, respectively, and outputs a first readout signal and a second readout signal, respectively; and a control circuit that controls operations of the first readout circuit and the second readout circuit. The first pixel and the second pixel are provided side by side along a long side of the image reading chip. The first readout circuit, the second readout circuit, and the control circuit are provided along the long side.

Claim (Index 2):
The image reading device according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the first readout circuit includes a first scanning circuit that controls an output timing of the first readout signal, the second readout circuit includes a second scanning circuit that controls an output timing of the second readout signal, after the first photodetector and the second photodetector receive light of an reduced image of the image, the timing at which the first readout signal is output by the first scanning circuit is earlier than the timing at which the second readout signal is output by the second scanning circuit, and the distance between the control circuit and the first scanning circuit is shorter than the distance between the control circuit and the second scanning circuit.
