Constant Current Laser Drivers/Controllers ATLS500MA201
FEATURES
APPLICATIONS
This laser driver is an electronic module designed for driving diode lasers with up to 500mA constant current, high efficiency, low noise, high reliability, zero EMI, and small package. It provides these the functions: laser constant current control, laser current monitoring, over current and thermal protection, laser current control indication, laser diode status indication, soft start, and shut down. It comes with a high stability low noise 2.5V voltage reference output which can be used for setting the output current. The reference output can also be used for the ADCs (Analog to Digital Converters) and/or DACs (Digital to Analog Converters).
A: For laser drivers ATLSXA201 and ATLSXA202, LIS pin should be toggled between these 2 voltages: a high value corresponding to the operation current and a low value corresponding to half of the threshold current of the laser the driver is driving.
