Description
The ATR0843 is a laser diode driver designed to operate two differently grounded
laser diodes for DVD-RW/+RW (650 nm) and CD-RW (780 nm). The device includes
four channels for four different optical power levels. The write channels (channel 2
to 4) can be controlled either by fast LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) or by
single-ended standard CMOS logic. In case of single-ended use, each of the ENABLE
inputs (NEx or Ex) can be used, the complementary input may be left open. There is
no need for blocking or connection to a reference voltage.
The function of the read channel is to generate a continuous output current, channels
2 to 4 are designed as write channels with very fast switching speed. All channels are
summed together and routed to one of the two outputs, IOUTA or IOUTB, controlled
by the select input SELA. Each write channel (channels 2 to 4) can contribute up to
350 mA to the total output current of up to 500 mA. The read channel can contribute
up to 150 mA. Total gain of 100 (read channel) and 250 (channel 2, 3 and 4), respec-
tively, are provided between each reference current input and the selected output.
Although the reference inputs are current inputs, voltage control is possible by using
external resistors. An on-chip RF oscillator is available to reduce laser-mode hopping
noise during read mode. The oscillator current amplitude can be set independently for
the two selectable outputs with two different resistors. Oscillation is enabled by a high
signal at the ENOSC pin. Complete shut-down of the output currents is achieved by a
low signal at the ENABLE input.
In case of uncertain (balanced) enable signals, a built-in protection circuit keeps the
laser diode output current within the defined range.
