Abstract: This present invention discloses a method for performing an accurate calibration of signal measurement by a light-driving system including an automatic power control (APC) circuit which is pre-calibrated for a signal measurement process. By enlarging at least one measured pad of the APC circuit, multiple grounding paths are established via a plurality of probes of a test instrument.
