Abstract
Abstract A photo-electric converter comprises: a plurality of linearly arranged photo-electric conversion elements; a plurality of common lines for connecting in common at least two of discrete output electrodes of the photo-electric conversion elements; a conductor layer kept at a constant potential and held between insulator layers at crosspoints of the discrete output electrodes and the common lines; and wirings kept at a constant potential and formed between the discrete electrodes and the common electrodes.
