A laser module for transmitting/receiving digital signals using a laser diode
as
an optical source is disclosed. The input end of the laser module is provided with
a low pass filter, such that the low pass filter makes a 3 dB bandwidth of frequency
response transferred from the input pins to the laser diode to be equal or less
than the on-state relaxation oscillation frequency of the laser diode, wherein
the overshoot is minimized by adjusting a relative amount of the frequency component
input to the laser diode.
