Abstract

An optical detection circuit includes: a first optical detection element having a first anode and a first cathode, the first optical detection element being configured to generate voltage between the first anode and the first cathode due to photoelectromotive force generated in accordance with incident-light quantity; and a first operational amplifier having a first non-inverting input terminal, a first inverting input terminal, and a first output terminal, in which the first non-inverting input terminal is connected to fixed potential, one of the first anode and the first cathode is connected to the first inverting input terminal, and the other of the first anode and the first cathode is connected to the first output terminal.
