To provide an optical communication device suitable for the transmission
of a high-frequency signal. An optical communication device includes a
first substrate having a light-emitting element or a light-receiving
element on one side of the first substrate; a second substrate having an
electronic circuit to perform operation control of the light-emitting
element or the light-receiving element; and a flexible substrate which
connects the section between the light-emitting element or the
light-receiving element and the electronic circuit while achieving
impedance matching.
