General Description
The EL6277C is a high-performance three channel laser diode current driver that provides controlled current to a grounded laser diode. Channel R and 2 can provide 100mA per channel of DC or pulsed current, while channel 3 can provide 200mA per channel. Channels 2, and 3 must be used as the write channels, with switching speeds of approximately three nanosecond rise/fall time. All three channels are summed together at the IOUT output, allowing the user to create multilevel 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 IIN pin (near ground). The current seen at this pin is then amplified by 100X to become a current source at pin IOUT. An on-chip 500 MHz oscillator is provided to allow current modulation 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 either of the OUTEN pins for channels 2 or 3(the write channels) are low (see truth table). Output current pulses are enabled when a `Low' signal is applied to the OUTEN pin. No output current flows when OUTEN is `H', and additional laser diode protection is provided since the OUTEN input will float high when open. Complete IOUT shut-off is also achieved by holding the ENABLE pin low, which will override the OUTEN control pins. The external resistors allow the user to accurately and independently set each amplifier trans conductance by applying a voltage to each resistor, without restriction on the voltage range. Alternatively, the IIN pin can be biased from a current DAC or other current source.
