ABSTRACT:
A two-dimensional digital data acquisition element includes: a pixel area having a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix form, each of the pixels having a photoelectric conversion element to convert the reproduced light from the optical information recording medium to an electric signal; selection circuits which select the pixel; a readout circuit which reads out an electric signal of a pixel selected by the selection circuits; and a 1-bit AD converter which converts an output of the readout circuit to 1-bit digital data. A pitch ratio N between a pitch P1of the unit data areas in the two-dimensional digital image information and a pitch P2of the pixels in the pixel area defined as N=P1/P2satisfies a relationin-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?A·n2/(An+1)<N<A·n2/(An−1)in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?where A is the number of digital data in one-dimensional direction of one byte of the two-dimensional digital data and n is a natural number of at least 2.
