An integrated circuit for providing burn-in current to a laser diode. The integrated circuit includes a laser driver having an output for connection to the laser diode. Burn-in circuitry is formed on the integrated circuit and generates a burn-in current. A switch is formed on the integrated circuit and couples the burn-in current to the laser diode in response to an enable signal.
