ADNS-6530 Datasheet | Avago Technologies

ADNS-6530 Integrated COB Laser Stream sensor Data Sheet Description The Avago Technologies ADNS-6530 integrated Chipcon-board (COB) Laser Stream sensor along with the ADNS-6150 (SFF) lens form a plete and pact laser mouse tracking system. It is the laser-illuminated small form factor (SFF) navigation system. Targeted at cordless applications. The chip integrates the sensor and VCSEL into a single package, providing a small form factor. This new opto-mechanical architecture allows for more pact and cost-effective mouse designs. Powered by latest Avago Technologies Laser Stream TM engine, the mouse can track on more than traditional LED-based optical navigation, especially on glossy and reflective ones. In addition, the high-performance, low power architecture is capable of sensing high-speed mouse motion while prolonging battery life-two performance areas essential in demanding cordless applications. There is no moving part in the plete assembly for ADNS-6530 laser mouse system, thus it is high reliability and less maintenance for the end user. In addition, precision optical alignment is not required, facilitating high volume assembly. Theory of Operation The ADNS-6530 integrated COB Laser Stream sensor prises of sensor and VCSEL in a single package. The advanced class of VCSEL was engineered by Avago Technologies to provide a laser diode with a single longitudinal and a single transverse mode. In contrast to most oxide-based single-mode VCSEL, this class of Avago Technologies VCSEL remains within single mode operation over a wide range of output power. It has significantly lower power consumption than a LED. It is an excellent choice for optical navigation applications. The sensor is based on Laser Stream™ technology, which measures changes in position by optically acquiring sequential surface images (frames) and mathematically determining the direction and magnitude of movement. It contains an Image Acquisition System (IAS), a Digital Signal Processor...
