Photoelectric conversion apparatus and image reading apparatus having power supply stop means for stopping supplying power to a part of the apparatus

摘要

A photoelectric conversion apparatus includes photoelectric conversion elements configured to receive light reflected from an original illuminated by a light source and to convert the received light into an electrical signal, an output circuit for amplifying the electrical signal from the photoelectric conversion elements and outputting the amplified signal as an image signal in a time series fashion, and a driving stop circuit for stopping driving a part of the photoelectric conversion elements or a power supply stop circuit for stopping supplying power to a part of the photoelectric conversion elements.
