® EL6935 Data Sheet August 18, 2004 FN7409.1 Laser Diode Driver w/Waveform Generator The EL6935 is a highly integrated laser diode driver designed to support multi-standard writable optical drives.

It accomplishes this by incorporating a waveform generator wherein the diode currents and timing details can be programmed before operation.

The generator inspects the NRZ serial data waveform and generates programmed waveforms in recognition of 3, 4, 5, or 6 or more clock periods of space changing
