iC-WKP

Optimised for P-type laser diodes (case grounded).

CW operation up to 350mA from 3 to 15V supply voltage.

Simple power adjustment via resistor.

Control loop accuracy better than 2% with changes in temperature, supply voltage and load current.

Integrated reverse polarity protection for the iC and LD.

Modulation via the feedback inputs.

Wide monitor current range from 2.5µA to 6.25mA.

Rapid soft start after power-on.

Strong suppression of transients with very small external capacitors; integrated flyback path.

Permanent shutdown with excessive temperature and overcurrent (i.e. if the laser diode is damaged or the feedback current path fails).

Two feedback inputs permits operation of both P and N type laser diodes.
