ABSTRACT:
A light output device includes: an output unit including a light source; a control voltage generation unit that detects output power of the light source, and generates a control voltage for controlling a drive current of the light source; a control unit that sets a target value of the output power; a voltage-current conversion unit that converts the control voltage into the drive current; a setting unit that sets an inclination of a characteristic line of control voltage-drive current conversion in the voltage-current conversion unit; and an adjustment unit that adjusts the voltage-current conversion unit such that the drive current becomes a target current value for setting the output power to the target value in a predetermined control voltage value on the characteristic line, wherein the setting unit sets the inclination of the characteristic line to a first inclination where the drive current does not reach a maximum current value.
