EL6275C - Product Brief
4-Channel Laser Diode Driver + Oscillator
General Description
The EL6275C is a four channel laser diode current amplifier that pro-
vides controlled current to a grounded laser diode. Channels 2, 3, and
4 should be used as the write channels, with switching speeds of
approximately three nanosecond rise/fall time. All four channels are
summed together at the I
level waveforms in order to optimize laser diode performance. The
level of the output current is set by an analog voltage applied to an
external resistor which converts the voltage into a current at the I
(virtually ground). The current seen at this pin is then amplified to
become a current source at pin I
An on-chip 500MHz oscillator is provided to allow output current
modulation when in any mode. This is turned on when the OSCEN pin
is held high. Complete control of amplitude and frequency is set by
two external resistors connected to ground at pins RFREQ and RAMP
(see graphs in this data sheet for further explanation).
Output current pulses are enabled when an ‘L’ signal is applied to the
OUTEN pin. No output current flows when OUTEN is ‘H’ and addi-
tional laser diode protection is provided since the OUTEN input will
float high when open. Complete I
ing the ENABLE pin low, which will override all other control pins.
The external resistors allow the user to accurately and independently
set each amplifier transconductance by applying a voltage to each
resistor, without restriction on the voltage range, thus ensuring broad
voltage DAC compatibility. Alternatively, the I
from a current DAC or other current source.
