U8600B Overview
The U8600B is a monolithic integrated circuit using TEMIC’s advanced UHF technology. The IC is a very high-speed, mixed signal laser driver circuit for re-writable optical systems. It prises a servo amplifier to drive the laser diode, a high-frequency modulator for noise reduction, power and pulse-width generators as well as several operation control and safety functions.
