ABSTRACT:
It is an object of the present invention to provide an excellent image reading apparatus that realizes miniaturization and reduces a total reading time at the time of reading a transparent original and, in addition, improves operability. In order to attain this object, since the image reading apparatus has a configuration in which a light source driving circuit section is disposed to overlap in the upward direction separating from an original mounting surface of a surface light emitting section, an area occupied by the light source driving circuit section and the surface light emitting section on a horizontal surface becomes small and miniaturization can be realized. In addition, since the light source driving circuit section and the surface light emitting section can be disposed in a position close to a hinge section altogether, the center of gravity of an FAU is moved to the hinge section side, and rotatability of the hinge section becomes easy and is improved. Since an image reading unit has its hinge section side as an HP, a time taken by the image reading unit for moving from the HP to below the surface light emitting section, where a transparent original is disposed at the time of starting to read the transparent original, can be reduced.
