DESCRIPTION

The iC-WK/L device is a driver for laser diodes in con- tinuous wave operation which requires only four ex- ternal components. The wide power supply range of 2.4 to 6 V and the integrated reverse battery protec- tion allow for battery operation with a minimum of two cells. A reversed battery connection destroys neither the iC nor the laser diode. The iC includes integrated circuitry protecting against destruction by ESD, excessive temperature and over- current and a soft start which regulates the power and protects the laser diode when the power supply is switched on. The iC also filters the laser diode power supply for transients. The power supply is regulated and adapted to the laser diode used by an external resistor at MDA. The monitor current acts as a reference and is regulated independent of the influence of temperature and sup- ply voltage (range: 10 µA to 2.5 mA). The capacitor at CI determines the control time constants and start-up time. A second monitor input, pin MDK, allows the driver to be used for other types of laser diode configuration; alternatively, it can be used as an analogue modula- tion input (DC to a few kHz). In the event of failure, such as overcurrent in the laser path with a lack of feedback, for example, a quick power lockout is activated. The shutdown continues until power is reapplied, permitting a restart. The strain on power packs and batteries is relieved and the laser class is retained even in the event of a dis- turbance. iC-WK offers additional protection by means of spike detection at pin MDA. Should spikes or oscillation occur at pin MDA the power lockout is activated. PACKAGES SO8, MSOP8 to JEDEC PIN CONFIGURATION SO8 (top view) GND MDK AGND MDA LDA WKCI VCC LDK code... ...

iC-WK, iC-WKL Rev D1, Page 6/8 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Laser light can damage the human eye and the eyes of animals!Do not look at any laser light di- rectly or through any optical lens. When handling a laser diode, do not look directly at the light generated by it. Wear appropriate safety glasses to prevent light from entering the eye even by reflection. TURN-ON/OFF BEHAVIOUR Turn-on behaviour After switching on the supply voltage the output stage remains disabled until the internal enabling flip-flop is set by a sufficiently high voltage at LDA. 0 s 10 us 20 us 30 us 40 us 50 us t I(LDK) V(CI) 0 V V(MDA) −I(MDA) V(LDA) V(VCC) 5.0 V 0 V 0 uA 0.6V 200 uA 5.0 V 0 V 2.0 V 0 V 0 mA 60 mA Phase I Phase II Phase III Figure 1: Turn-on behaviour A quick soft start occurs during phase I; the control capacitor CI is loaded at an accelerated rate until the output stage supplies current at LDK. An open-circuit voltage at pin MDA is used to verify the external resis- tance. Phase II, the initialisation process, begins when cur- rent starts to flow at LDK. This phase ends when the laser reaches its threshold current and the monitor cur- rent produced raises the potential at resistor RM. The transition to CW operation (phase III) is gradual and primarily influenced by the CI and RM compo- nents. CI is properly dimensioned when the voltage overshot at MDA is at a minimum. Turn-off behaviour iC-WK/L functions without a fixed undervoltage lock- out, thus the laser diode forward voltage is the prime factor determining the lowest possible supply voltage. If the voltage drops below this, the output stage is forcibly saturated and the laser current falls. In this in- stance iC-WK/L simultaneously discharges control ca- pacitor CI so that no excessive laser diode currents occur when the supply voltage rises again. 100 us 150 us 200 us 250 us 300 us I(LDK) 0 mA V(CI) 2.0 V 0 V V(MDA) 0 V −I(MDA) 0 uA V(LDA) V(VCC) 60 mA 0.6 V t 200 uA 5.0 V 0 V 5.0 V 0 V Phase IV Phase V Figure 2: Turn-off behaviour Disruptions in operation The power control is shut down with excessive driver temperature or when the laser current reaches the overcurrent shutdown threshold, for example when the feedback is interrupted. If the monitor diode or the pre- set resistor RM fail, the device is shutdown in less than 250 µs, provided that the supply voltage applied is high enough. When modulating or switching the laser current via pin MDK (see Application Notes), excessive Voltage oc- curring at pin MDA also causes a shut down (iC-WK only).

iC-WK, iC-WKL Rev D1, Page 7/8 APPLICATION NOTES Setting the output power The output power is simply set by RM = V(MDA) / I(MD); with V(MDA) = Item-No. 101 and I(MD) = mon- itor current at the desired operating point. RM should be combined from fixed resistor (max. output power) and a trimmer (calibration).
