2.1 ATC Loops
There is one loop for operating the laser diode at constant optical
output power, as well as at constant temperature by means of
an Auto Temperature Control Loops (ATC). The optical power
and the life-span would be influenced by the temperature of the
heat optical laser. The feasible temperature of the chip is 25
0
C.
The semi conductor laser is sealed in the parts, a temperature
detector resistance is stored in this part.
