An image reading apparatus (10) includes a photoelectric conversion element formation substrate (4) having a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements (2) on a reverse surface of an information reading surface, and a supporting substrate (1) bonded by an adhesive resin (5) to the photoelectric conversion element formation substrate (4) so that the supporting substrate (1) is integrated with the photoelectric conversion element formation substrate (4) and faces the plurality of photoelectric conversion elements (2) on the photoelectric conversion element formation substrate (4). With this arrangement, provided is a photoelectric conversion apparatus and manufacturing method of same in which (a) a process of bonding a micro glass sheet is not required and (b) a protrusion of an installation portion toward a surface of a document is eliminated.
