Abstract: A light source device includes: a first light source including a first electrode to which a current is applied, a first light emitter configured to emit light by the current applied to the first electrode, and a first heat release region configured to release heat generated in the first light emitter; a second light source including a second electrode to which a current is applied, a second light emitter configured to emit light in a wavelength different from a wavelength of the first light emitter, by the current applied to the second electrode, and a second heat release region configured to release heat generated in the second light emitter; and a heat release portion electrically-connected with the first electrode, electrically-insulated from the second electrode, and thermally connected to the first heat release region and the second heat release region.

Abstract: A light source device includes: a rotating body configured to be rotated with a rotating shaft as a center; a first wavelength conversion portion arranged on a circumference of a circle of a predetermined radius with the rotating shaft as the center in the rotating body, and configured to be irradiated with light to generate light of a wavelength different from a wavelength of the light; and a second wavelength conversion portion arranged on a circumference of a circle of a radius larger than the predetermined radius with the rotating shaft as the center in the rotating body, configured to be irradiated with light to generate light of a wavelength different from a wavelength of the light, and including a characteristic that conversion efficiency of the wavelength declines due to rise of a temperature more than the first wavelength conversion portion.

Abstract: An endoscope light source apparatus includes a turret provided with a first optical filter and a second optical filter for transmitting an illuminating light, an instruction section in which an operation instruction of the turret is inputted, a drive section that drives the turret, a first detector that detects a position of the turret, a first detected portion for identifying a position of the first optical filter, a second detected portion for identifying a position of the second optical filter, a second detector that optically detects a position of the first or the second detected portion, and a turret control section that outputs a drive signal to the drive section to move the turret until the first or the second detected portion is detected by the second detector and stop the turret in response to the first or the second detected portion being detected.
