An image scanning device includes a light source for emitting a beam, a CCD circuit board having a CCD sensor, an optical unit for guiding the emitted beam from the light source to the CCD sensor, a CCD sensor driving circuit connected to the CCD circuit board by a signal cable, a clock generating circuit for generating a clock signal to be transferred to the CCD sensor, a reset pulse generating circuit for generating a reset pulse for resetting an output buffer of the CCD sensor, a clamp circuit for clamping an output of the CCD sensor, and an analog-to-digital converter for converting an analog signal into a digital signal. The clock generating circuit is disposed on the CCD circuit board. The reset pulse generating circuit is disposed on the CCD circuit board. The CCD sensor driving circuit includes a fast clock generator for feeding clock signals to a CCD element at fast speed, and a voltage attenuator for attenuating a voltage of the fast clocks. The optical unit includes a light condensing means for condensing the beam emitted from the light source to a front point of the light source, the light source irradiating the beam on a manuscript surface. The image scanning device further includes an actuating means for actuating the reset means and the clamp means one time for a plurality of outputs of the CCD sensor, a first latch means for latching an output of the analog-to-digital converter, a second latch means for latching an output of the first latch means, and a subtracting means for subtracting the output of the second latch means from the output of the first latch means.
