Abstract
Abstract A photosensor array device is adapted to detect an image of a pattern described on a sending original. The device comprises an optical base having its bottom surface close to the original, a photoelectric conversion element formed above the upper surface of the base plate, a plurality of conductor electrodes each connected at one end thereof to the photoelectric conversion element, and a drive circuit element connected to the other end of each of the conductor electrodes. Disposed on the upper surface of the base is a plate member of an area greater than the area of the upper surface of the base on which the photoelectric conversion element, conductor electrodes and driving circuit element are formed.
