THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9661A combines a very fast output current switch with
an onboard analog light power control loop to provide the user
with a complete laser diode driver solution. The block diagram
illustrates the key internal functions. The control loop of the
AD9661A adjusts the output current level, I
photo diode feedback current, I
portional to the analog input voltage at POWER LEVEL. Since
the monitor current is proportional to the laser diode light
power, the loop effectively controls laser power to a level pro-
portional to the analog input. The control loop should be peri-
odically calibrated (see Choosing C
The disable circuit turns off I
voltages to their minimum levels (minimum output current)
when DISABLE = logic HIGH. It is used during initial power
up of the AD9661A or during time periods where the laser is
inactive. When the AD9661A is re-enabled the control loop
must be recalibrated.
Normal operation of the AD9661A involves the following (in
order, see Figure 1):
1. The AD9661A is enabled (DISABLE = logic LOW).
2. The input voltage (POWER LEVEL) is driven to the
