The present invention provides an optical transmission module having a laser diode that generates laser beams and a differential type current switch provided with a first switch and a second switch in order to supply a modulating current to the laser diode. A terminal of the laser diode and the first switch are connected in series through a first transmission line and a first capacitor, the other terminal of the laser diode and the second switch are connected in series through a second transmission line and a second capacitor. The current driven by the second switch is terminated by a resistor connected to the first switch and the current driven by the first switch is terminated by a resistor connected to the second switch. Thus, the laser diode is modulated bidirectionally.
