ABSTRACT:
In a CCD sensor in which electric charges derived from a plurality of detecting elements2are outputted from a signal output portion9, two diffusion portions22A and22B are provided in a parallel manner to each other in the signal output portion9, and electric charges outputted from a designated detecting element2are accumulated into one diffusion portions22A so as to output the accumulated electric charges. Even in such a case that signal levels derived from detecting elements are low, such a CCD sensor capable of performing a high-precision measuring operation is provided, while a dynamic range of the CCD sensor is widened.
