Optical transceiver

Abstract

An optical transceiver includes an optical transmitter and an optical receiver. The optical transmitter includes a laser diode configured to convert a current signal into an optical signal; a main driver comprising first and second output terminals that have a differential structure, the main driver configured to drive the first and second output terminals in response to differential input signals and to provide the current signal to the laser diode through the first output terminal; and an impedance balancer configured to match impedances of the first and second output terminals by adjusting the impedance of the second output terminal according to signal states of the first and second output terminals.
