• Manufacturer Part Number: ak2573a
• Description: 125m / 156m Laser Diode Driver Apc - Asahi Kasei Microsystems
• Manufacturer: AKM Semiconductor, Inc.

The AK2573A has 3 primary functions; 125M / 156M Laser diode driver part, APC (Automatic Power Control) part
which supplies adequate bias current and modulation current to a Laser Diode, and the Control part to control
operation modes of the AK2573A operation.
There are 3 operation modes in the AK2573A. Since each adjusting function is controlled through I
realizes an automatic parameter adjustment.
(1) Self-running Mode
Self-running mode is ready for normal operation after all adjustments are completed. In this mode, temperature
detection, EEPROM access and feeding current are automatically performed using the on-chip oscillator. The
AK2573A works in this mode after power-on.
(2) Adjustment Mode
(3) EEPROM Mode
EEPROM mode is used for storing LD characteristics into EEPROM via I

1. Parameter Notation
1.1 Parameter Definition
In the AK2573A Circuit Description, in order to distinguish various pre-set parameter sources from EEPROM,
Registers or Device pins, “ Identifier - Main name” notation is used as shown in Table 1-1. For ease of operational
description, small letters sometimes expresses internal signals.

1.2 Operation Overview
Adjustment mode is designed for training the LD characteristics. The AK2573A operates according to the register
settings set through the I
