An image reading apparatus includes an image reading chip configured to read an image. The image reading chip includes a first pixel unit which generates a first pixel signal, a second pixel unit which generates a second pixel signal, a first amplification unit which amplifies the first pixel signal, and outputs a first amplification signal, a second amplification unit which amplifies the second pixel signal, and outputs a second amplification signal, and a third amplification unit that amplifies each of the first amplification signal and the second amplification signal, and outputs an amplified signal. The image reading chip has a shape which includes a first side and a second side shorter than the first side. The third amplification unit is disposed between the first amplification unit and the second amplification unit in a direction along the first side.
