ABSTRACT:
A light source driving unit includes a modulating signal generating section generating modulating signals based on driving waveform generating information of a light source, a current source selecting section selecting one or more currents output from current sources based on the modulating signals, a light source driving section generating a current having multi-levels based on the one or more currents selected and supplying the generated current to the light source to drive the light source so that light in multi-levels is generated from the light source, and a cancelling section adding a signal error amount which cancels differences in amounts of signal delays generated between the modulating signal generating section and the light source driving section at a stage prior to the current source selecting section.
