5V Wide Optical Spectrum Laser Power Monitor IC
The ISL58328 photo sensor IC has a wide optical spectral
sensitivity from 400nm to 1000nm. It is good for multiple light
sources application, such as laser based projectors. ISL58328
has two banks of three sets of gain registers. For a Pico-
Projector application, the two banks of gain resistors can be
used to monitor bias level and peak level of each wavelength.
Bank switching is done by applying a TTL compatible logic
signal to HL pin. The three sets of gain registers can be used to
adjust optical-to-electrical conversion gain for each RED,
GREEN, and BLUE laser or any wavelength in a spectral range
for application. The ISL58328 is a single die device that has a
photo detector of 0.7mm diameter in the center of the die.
Photo current signal is amplified through TIA, fine gain
amplifier, and output drivers to convert from current to voltage.
The output of ISL58328 can be configured to be either
differential or single-ended. Gain changing according to each
wavelength is done through 3-wire interface. Registers can be
updated in real time while the device is in operation.
