Patent abstract
The present invention is intended to prevent a light-emitting diode from emitting light continuously in the case when the level at an input terminal is fixed high because of software or the like and to avoid various problems, such as battery exhaustion and breakdown of the light-emitting diode, in PDAs, cellular phones, etc. For these purposes, a high-pass filter 21 for passing the high-frequency components of an optical transmission input signal having a pulse waveform and a binary circuit 22 for binarizing the output signal of the high-pass filter 21 so as to be returned to a pulse waveform are provided in the preceding stage of a light-emitting device driving circuit 23 for driving a light-emitting diode 8 for optical transmission.
