An optical transmitter implemented with an LD whose temperature is stably controlled is disclosed. A temperature of the LD is continuously monitored; and a difference from the target temperature and a time derivative thereof are calculated. When the time derivative becomes substantially zero, that is, the difference becomes an extremum, the convergent range for the time derivative is changed depending on the extremum, or an average of the current extremum and the previous extremum.
