Abstract

A light-emitting thyristor matrix array in which the area of a chip may be decreased is provided. A plurality of three-terminal light-emitting thyristors are arrayed in one line in parallel with the long side of the chip, a plurality of bonding pads are arrayed in one line in parallel with the long side of the chip. Thereby, the area of the chip becomes smaller.
