ISL58792
Laser Diode Driver with Serial Control and Write Current DAC
FN7580 Rev 3.00 December 14, 2015
The ISL58792 is a highly integrated, single supply laser diode driver designed to support multi-standard writable optical drives in CD, DVD, and Blu-Ray formats at various speeds. It is a ‘hybrid’ part having an interface compatible with a conventional LDD, but an internal architecture similar to a write strategy LDD. This combination adds versatility to the conventional interface.
The rise time, fall time and overshoot of all outputs are adjustable to compensate for high and low resistance lasers.
The ISL58792 architecture includes dual write current banks, which can be selected using the bank select line, BSEL.
