Pin Descriptions
Figure 2 illustrates the pin assignment on the module and basic application schematics.
Pin 1 SDNG, shut down, digital input. Negative logic, >2.3V = enable, <0.5V = shut down, norminal
threshold voltage = 1V. Its internal circuit is shown in Figure 2. The diode is for shortening the
shut down time.
Pin 2 CLPGD, control loop good indication, digital output. A HI level indicates control loop locked.
This pin is an open drain output and pulled up by a 20K resistor to VPS.
Pin 3 P/CM, power/current mode indication, analog output. HI = power mode, LO = current mode.
Low output impedance, capable of driving 20mA load.
Pin 4 GND, signal ground pin. Connect ADC and DAC grounds to here.
Pin 5 2.5V, reference voltage, analog output. It is used by the internal DACs as the reference voltage. It
can source and sink 5mA current with 20ppm/°C stability max.
Pin 6 LIS, laser current set-point voltage, analog input. 0V to 2.5V sets the output current from 0 to 2A
linearly. The input impedance of this pin is 100KW. This pin can be set by an external analog
signal source, such as the output of a closed-looped op-amp, POT, or DAC.
Pin 7 LIO, laser current output indication, analog output. 0V to 2.5V indicates the laser current of from
0 to 2A linearly.
