According to the present invention, there is provided an image sensor for receiving light reflected from an original copy on which the light has been irradiated and for converting the received light into electrical signals, the image sensor having a simple configuration, no residual image, a small fluctuation in the dark outputs, and a good S/N ratio. In order to achieve such an image sensor, an output terminal of a photodiode is reset to a constant voltage, and an image signal output of the photodiode and the reference voltage output immediately after the photodiode is reset are performed succeedingly, using a clamping circuit.
