Abstract

Abstract An optical pulse receiving circuit comprises a photoelectric conversion circuit and a comparison circuit, of which one of two input terminals is connected to the output of said photoelectric conversion circuit, while a voltage with a value obtained by reducing the maximum value of output pulse voltage of said photoelectric conversion circuit by a predeter-. mined proportion is applied to the other input terminal of said comparison circuit, which provides either high or low output voltage according to the magnitude of both input voltages. Also a predetermined number of bias voltages can be applied to said other input terminal.
