Abstract
A light source device includes a laser diode configured to emit a laser light used as an illumination light, a determination unit configured to determine one of a plurality of modes as an operation mode of the laser diode based on usage state of the light source device; and a driver configured to drive the laser diode in a condition that a bias current to the laser diode is applied depending on the operation mode determined by the determination unit.
