Abstract: An optical communication device and a control method thereof are provided. The optical communication device includes a driving module, a data transmission module, a light emitting module, and a feedback module. The driving module generates a driving current. The data transmission module generates a data current according to a piece of data. The light emitting module is electrically connected to the driving module and the data transmission module directly and emits visible light according to an illuminating current generated by combining the driving current with the data current. The feedback module adjusts a direct current (DC) potential of one of the driving current and the data current so as to make an average intensity of the visible light equal a preset intensity.

Abstract: A visible light communication device includes a light-emitting unit, a switch-mode light-emitting diode (LED) driver, a synthesizing circuit, and a path selection circuit. The switch-mode LED driver provides a driving current for driving the light-emitting unit. The synthesizing circuit synthesizes a data signal and a dimming signal to form a synthesized signal. According to a data frequency and a dimming ratio obtained from one or more path selection information, the path selection circuit selects to turn on a bypass current modulation unit to inject the synthesized signal to the bypass current modulation unit along one path and the bypass current modulation unit controls the light-emitting unit according to the synthesized signal, or selects to inject the synthesized signal to the switch-mode LED driver along another path and the switch-mode LED driver controls the light-emitting unit according to the synthesized signal.
