EL6253C - Product Brief
3-Channel laser diode Driver + Oscillator
General Description
The EL6253C is a high-performance three channel laser diode current
amplifier that provides controlled current to a grounded laser diode.
Amplifiers R and 2 can provide up to 120 mA per channel of DC or
pulsed current whereas amplifier 3 can provide up to 240 mA. Chan-
nels 2 and 3 must be used as the write channels, with switching speeds
of approximately one nanosecond rise/fall time. All three 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 by
100X to become a current source at pin I
An on-chip 500 MHz oscillator is provided to allow current modula-
tion when in the read mode. This is turned on when the OSCEN pin is
held high (floating not recommended). 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). The oscillator will also turn off whenever any of the
OUTEN pins for channels 2 or 3(the write channels) are low (see truth
table).
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
holding the ENABLE pin low, which will override the OUTEN con-
trol 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.
