Abstract
The invention is directed to a laser diode assembly having a laser diode and a support, whereon the laser diode is arranged or formed in one single piece. The laser diode assembly further includes a coupling capacitor integral therewith, wherein the laser diode is subjected to the action of a laser driver circuit via the coupling capacitor associated with the assembly. The invention is also directed to a device for operating a laser diode, wherein the device includes a coupling capacitor integral with a laser diode assembly. The invention enables a reduction in the number of coupling paths between a laser driver circuit and a laser diode assembly, thereby reducing the occurrence of parasitic elements.
