A single laser-diode driver from Elantec Semiconductor directly drives both CD and DVD lasers, simplifying the task of combining these optical drives in a single system. Elantec's patented EL629XC ...

Recently re-engineered to integrate with higher temperature, RoHS-compliant manufacturing processes, the low-noise FL500 laser-diode driver is now compatible with reflow processing at less than +250°C ...

Suited for small slim drives used in notebook computers as well as for half-height drives in desktop PCs and consumer DVD recorders, the ATR0881 laser diode driver IC is offered as the smallest of its ...

Abstract: A wideband multiple resonance small-signal laser equivalent circuit model is presented to improve optoelectronic circuit design accuracy. Two important laser diode characteristics, such as ...

Supporting x16 DVD and x52 CD write/rewrite speeds for the next generation of optical disc drives used in high-speed DVD/CD combination recorder units, the ZL40510/1 laser diode drivers include two ...
