A driving device for driving a two-dimensional contact image sensor comprising a plurality of pixel forming light-receiving elements that are arranged in a two-dimensional matrix in both main scanning and frame scan directions, charge transfer switching elements for respective pixels that are individually connected to said light-receiving elements and which transfer the charges generated in said light-receiving elements, gate lines that are common to said charge transfer switching elements for respective pixels in the main scanning direction, and data lines that are connected to said charge transfer switching elements for respective pixels and which are common thereto in the frame scan direction, said driving device carrying out a plurality of pre-scans cycle on the same image without producing an output image signal and, thereafter, scanning the image to produce an output image signal. Whereby, imagelags that would otherwise occur in the frame scan direction are eliminated to enable the production of correct output image signals.
A driving device for driving a two-dimensional contact image sensor comprising:
A driving method for driving a two-dimensional contact image sensor comprising a plurality of pixel forming light-receiving elements arranged in a two-dimensional matrix defined by a plurality of data blocks in a main scanning direction and a plurality of gate blocks in a frame scan direction for scanning an image by generating charges according to a sensed image, charge transfer switching elements for holding charges generated by a plurality of data blocks of said light-receiving elements, gate lines for connecting said light receiving means in the main scanning direction, data lines for individually connecting said charge transfer switching elements to said light receiving elements in the frame scan direction, output image signal means for outputting an output image signal according to the charges held in the charge transfer switching elements, said driving method comprising the steps of:
