Master controller 10 is in order to accept external drive instruction and to parse corresponding constant current control signal and thermostatic control signal.According to the drive current of Distributed Feedback Laser 30 and temperature, specific constant current control signal can be set and thermostatic control signal is used for controlling the size of drive current and temperature, thereby control the power of laser.Drive current and arranging of temperature for Distributed Feedback Laser 30 are all included in described constant current control signal and thermostatic control signal.Master controller 10 is for example AVR single-chip microcomputer, adopts MLF(Micro Lead Frame) mode encapsulates to reduce the circuit volume of whole system.
DA transducer 20, for the constant current control signal of above-mentioned master controller 10 outputs and thermostatic control signal are carried out to DA conversion with output constant current control voltage and thermostatic control voltage, is convenient to constant-current drive circuit 40 and 50 processing of constant temperature drive circuit.DA transducer is for example four-way 16 bit pads with SPI interface, in order to guarantee the precision of output control voltage.DA transducer 20 connects master controller 10 by SPI interface.
Constant-current drive circuit 40 of the present invention and constant temperature drive circuit 50 all adopt monolithic integrated circuit.Described constant-current drive circuit 40 is for controlling the parameter of voltage control laser 30 with the power of control laser according to constant current.Constant-current drive circuit 40 comprises constant current control table, after constant-current drive circuit 40 receives external drive instruction, by described constant current control table, parses corresponding constant current control signal.
In constant-current drive circuit 40, comprise controller 41, in order to the Output optical power of described Distributed Feedback Laser 30 is carried out to control and compensation, to stablize the Output optical power of Distributed Feedback Laser 30.Controller 41 can be PID controller.In constant-current drive circuit 40, also can set in advance the threshold value of Distributed Feedback Laser 30 Output optical power, and automatically detect the Output optical power size of described Distributed Feedback Laser 30, if exceed described threshold value, constant-current drive circuit 40 closes to protect Distributed Feedback Laser 30 automatically.
Described constant temperature drive circuit 50 is the power with control laser according to the parameter of thermostatic control voltage control laser 30.In constant temperature drive circuit 50, comprise voltage comparator 51; one termination is subject to described thermostatic control voltage; the other end receives a reference voltage of setting; when described thermostatic control electric voltage exception, described voltage comparator 51 output one triggering levels are to automatically shut down described constant-current drive circuit 40 to protect described Distributed Feedback Laser 30.
Refer to Fig. 2, Fig. 2 is the flow chart of the driving method of Distributed Feedback Laser 30 of the present invention.First with PC, connect the master controller 10 in Distributed Feedback Laser drive system of the present invention, then according to the demand of the drive current of Distributed Feedback Laser 30 and temperature, described external drive instruction is set, then this external drive instruction sends to master controller 10, makes master controller 10 output constant current control signals and thermostatic control signal.
Adopt the attainable control function of PC to comprise: laser 30 luminous powers are set, arrange laser 30 temperature, obtain when header board carry temperature, obtain current lasers 30 drive current, turn-off laser 30 constant currents and drive, turn-off laser 30 constant temperature and drive.
