Digital Resistor Sets Operating Power for Laser Driver
By: James Horste
Abstract: Adding an op amp and a digital potentiometer to a standard laser-driver circuit produces a driver that varies the laser's
power-set point in response to temperature, generating a photodiode current that is a linear function of the potentiometer value.

The MAX3740 VCSEL laser driver and DS1859 dual, temperature-controlled digital resistor are popular choices for SFP and SFF
fiber-optic systems, due to their sm……
