Abstract

PURPOSE:To precisely execute compensation as much as temperature dependence in the temperature range of whole action by providing a memory where data giving a reference voltage according to the temperature characteristic of a laser diode is written and obtaining the reference voltage with the aid of regarding the output of a temperature sensor as address. CONSTITUTION:The data giving the reference voltage in proportion to an LD driving current which is changed by the temperature characteristic of the laser diode (LD) is written in the memory 12. The temperature sensor 11 monitors the action temperature of an LD module and reads out the reference voltage 102 from the memory 12 by regarding the digital signal 101 of the monitored result as an address value. Thus, after an LD driving current monitoring voltage 100 is compared with the voltage 102 and an oscillation threshold is compensated as much as the temperature dependence, an LD deterioration alarm 103 is outputted. Therefore, the compensation as much as the temperature dependence is precisely executed in the temperature range of the whole action.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the conventional laser diode deterioration detection circuit described above, compensation for the temperature dependence of the oscillation threshold of the laser diode deterioration alarm 203 is performed by changing the temperature characteristics of the external diode 20 to the temperature characteristics of the laser diode. Therefore, if there is a difference between the temperature characteristics of the laser diode and the temperature characteristics of the external diode at the actual operating temperature, the oscillation threshold of the laser diode deterioration alarm will differ depending on the operating temperature, and the accurate temperature dependence will vary. The disadvantage is that it cannot be compensated for.
