A disclosed laser diode driving circuit causes a laser diode to emit light by varying a current value of a current source in accordance with a control signal input externally and supplying a current that is the same as or proportional to the current value to the laser diode. The driving circuit includes correction circuitry for generating a reference forward voltage as a reference for the laser diode in accordance with a predetermined driving current for driving the laser diode, generating a forward voltage for the laser diode in accordance with the predetermined driving current, and correcting a current supplied to the laser diode so that the forward voltage becomes the same as the reference forward voltage.
