The AD9665 is a laser diode driver for high performance CD-RW
and DVD recordable drives. It includes four channels for four
different optical power levels: the read channel generates a
continuous output power level, whereas Channel 1, Channel 2,
and Channel 3 can be used as write channels that can be
controlled with an LVDS or TTL interface. The WxDIS and

an active high TTL signal. All active channels are summed at
the output where Write Channel 1 can contribute at least
325 mA output current, and Write Channel 2 and Write
Channel 3 can contribute at least 250 mA and 150 mA,
respectively. The level of the output current is set by an
external resistor, which converts this voltage into a current
at the WxSET pin.

An on-chip oscillator is provided to allow output current
modulation and to reduce laser-mode hopping. Four external
resistors permit the setting of two distinct values for the
frequency and swing of the oscillator. The oscillator can output
up to 100 mA p-p of current (push-pull oscillator) with a
frequency range of 200 MHz to 500 MHz.
