<p>An optical communication module includes a semiconductor laser drive circuit configured to supply a drive current to a semiconductor laser so as to output a laser beam; a drive control section configured to control the semiconductor laser drive circuit based on an ambient temperature of the semiconductor laser such that the output light beam has a predetermined light level, and the drive current falls within a predetermined range. A light quantity adjusting section removes a part of the laser beam to produce an output light beam from a remaining portion of the laser beam when the laser beam passes through the light quantity adjusting section, and a quantity of the removed apart of the laser beam depends on a wavelength of the laser beam and an ambient temperature of the semiconductor laser.</p> |
