DS1862 Overview
The DS1862 is a closed-loop laser-driver control IC with built-in digital diagnostics designed for XFP MSA. The laser control function incorporates average power control (APC) and allows extinction ratio control though a temperature indexed look-up table (LUT). The DS1862 monitors up to seven analog inputs, including temperature and monitor diode (MD) current, which are used to regulate the laser bias current and...
