SP8036 Overview
The SP8036 represents the next generation in Automatic Power Control (APC) amplifiers designed specifically for demanding pick-up head applications. With its integrated photo detector, the SP8036 monitors light intensity of the laser diode in CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+/-R, DVD+/-RW, and DVD-RAM assemblies and converts this light to an output voltage. The magnitude of this voltage signal corresponds to the laser power...
