Abstract
A laser diode drive circuit includes a laser diode (LD), a modulation-current differential drive circuit, a bias-current differential drive circuit, a first inductance connected between an anode of the LD and a positive power source, a second inductance connected between a cathode of the LD and a negative-phase output terminal of the bias-current differential drive circuit, a first resistor connected to a connection point of the anode of the LD and the first inductance and connected to a negative-phase output terminal of the modulation-current differential drive circuit, and a second resistor connected to a connection point of the cathode of the LD and the second inductance and connected to a positive-phase output terminal of the modulation-current differential drive circuit, and a positive-phase output terminal of the bias-current differential drive circuit is connected to the connection point.
