• Manufacturer Part Number: lda1-cp1-d
• Description: Dual Mode Laser Driver
• Manufacturer: Analog Technology, Inc.

MODE SETTING
A. Set the driver to constant current mode without over
power protection
In this mode, the laser is always operating at constant current
mode.
B. Set the driver to constant current mode with over
power protection
In this mode, the laser is operating at the constant current
mode until the laser output power reaches the preset
maximum power, the protection power, when this happens,
the laser will be operating in a constant power mode.

the internal TIA when the laser is outputting the
protection power level. The TIA converts the
current of the power-sensing PD (Photo Diode) into
a voltage, with the gain set by an external resistor
connected between the PDC and LPO pins. Make
sure that the set-point laser current is at least 5%
less than the current needed to generate the
protection laser power level.

C. Set the driver to constant power mode without over
current protection
In this mode, the laser is always operating in the constant
power mode (up to the maximum rated current of 2.0A).
D. Set the driver to constant power mode with over
current protection
In this mode, the laser is operating in the constant power
mode unless the laser current reaches a predetermined
protection current. When the laser reaches the protection
current, the laser will be operating in constant current mode.

Amplifier) when the laser is outputting the set-point
power. The TIA converts the current of the power-
sensing PD (Photo Diode) into a voltage, with the
gain set by an external resistor connected between
the PDC and LPO pins. Make sure that the laser can
output the set-point power by a current of less than
