Abstract
Bandwidth is secured for a read signal transmission line by matching the characteristic impedance of the read signal transmission line with the output impedance of a photodetector of an optical pick up, while at the same time securing bandwidth for the photodetector. In an optical disc drive according to an embodiment of the present invention, each line forming a differential transmission line is divided into a plurality of lines of the same quantity, the quantity being two or more, at or near a connection point between a flexible line and the optical pick up.
