WLD3393 Rev B
WLD3343 Laser Diode Driver
Demo Board
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Use the WLD3393 Demo Board to rapidly
prototype a complete laser diode control system
using the cutting edge technology of the
WLD3343
Laser Diode Driver.
switches, connectors, and trimpots make
confi guration and operation simple. Input and
output cables are also included.
Operate in either constant current (CC) or
constant power (CP) mode.
12-turn trimpot allows fi ne adjustment of laser
diode forward current (CC Mode) or monitor
photodiode current (CP Mode). Another trimpot
sets the laser diode forward current limit. The
input cable allows easy connection to your
power supply and monitoring equipment while
the output cable quickly connects to your laser
diode and monitor photodiode.
High power applications can use the onboard
fan connector to power a WXC303 or WXC304
(+5 VDC or +12 VDC) fan attached to a WHS302
heatsink.

  • Page 3: Setup Information

    Match up the notch in the WLD3343 with the index marker shown in Figure 3. Align the WLD3343 pins with the WLD3393 sockets ensuring that all pins are lined up. Press fi rmly to seat the WLD3343. Make sure that none of the pins of the WLD3343 were bent during insertion before continuing.
  • Page 4 Monitor the voltage at the PDM pin on the terminal block on the top side of the WLD3393. Before powering the unit on to operate in constant current mode, make sure that the mode switch is in the CC position (see Figure 1). Select the output current range by setting the LD RANGE jumper on the back of the WLD3393 to either the 200mA or the 2A position.
  • Page 5 To confi gure the WLD3393 for your laser diode type, connect the confi guration board to the bottom of the WLD3393 so that the arrow on the protruding edge of the confi guration board points to either A/B or C. Refer to Figure 6 for example installation.
  • Page 6 Use PGND for the power return. The common (COM) terminal on the WLD3393 is not intended to act as a power connection, but as the low noise ground reference for connecting an external VSET source, and for monitoring the IMON, PMON, and PDM signals.
  • Page 7 STEP 6: SET THE LASER DIODE CURRENT LIMIT The WLD3393 LIM trimpot adjusts the laser diode current limit from zero to the full 200 mA or 2.0 Amps, depending on the laser diode current range selected. For accurate laser diode current limit confi...
