In low power laser diode modules the designer has the option to use the classical discrete solution or take advantage of fully integrated driver ICs. Often the component cost is the only driving ...

Interfacing laser driver circuits with commercially available laser diodes at high data rates can be a complicated and frustrating task. This application note is intended to briefly address this topic ...

This circuit was designed to meet a medical application’s requirement to drive a laser diode with reasonable precision and a minimum of components and footprint (the device is now in clinical trials).

FORT COLLINS, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ IXYS), a leader in power semiconductors for power conversion and motion control applications, announced today that its Colorado division ...

[Les] from [Les’ Lab] has designed a driver for laser diodes up to 10 watts, and decided to show us how it operates, tells us what we should keep in mind when designing such a driver, and talks about ...

Ricoh Electronic Devices has expanded its portfolio with the addition of two new Laser Diode Driver ICs targeted for laser scanning type automotive and consumer projector applications. Laser driven ...

The resistor and 10 uF capacitor are already forming a low-pass filter, which should prevent any spikes in either current/voltage. I don't know much about laser diodes though, so I am not sure what ...

MILPITAS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SiliconCore Technology, a leading fabless analog products company, today announced that the US Patent Office has approved its patent application for “Higher ...

iC-Haus’ new iC-HT driver permits microcontroller-based activation of laser diodes in CW mode. Laser diodes can be driven by either the optical output power (using APC), the laser diode current (using ...
