Description
The iC-WK/L device is a driver for laser diodes in continuous wave operation which requires only four external components.
Features
- ° CW operation up to 70mA from 2.4..6V supply voltage and up to 4A with an external power transistor
° Rapid soft start after power-on typical within 70µs ° Simple power adjustment via the external resistor ° Control loop accuracy better than 1% with changes in
temperature, supply voltage and load current ° Integrated reverse polarity protection for the iC and laser
diode ° Strong suppression of transients with very small external
capacitors; integrated flyback path ° Permanent shutdown with exc.
