ABSTRACT:
A two-stage amplifier of a first-stage amplifier21and second-stage amplifiers22and23is provided. A writing mode and reproducing modes are switched in the first-stage amplifier21by switching a parallel circuit of a feedback capacitor Cf1wand a feedback resistor Rf1wand a parallel circuit of a feedback capacitor Cf1rand a feedback resistor Rf1r. The second-stage amplifier23is provided with feedback resistors Rf22and Rf23that are connected to each other in parallel. The feedback resistor Rf23is connected in the feedback loop by a switch transistor QSW only when reproducing a high-reflective disk. This enables an amplifier gain to be suitably set for each of writing, low-reflective disk reproducing, and high-reflective disk reproducing. As a result, desirable reproducing characteristics can be obtained for the low-reflective disk while accommodating high-speed writing with a large laser power.
