The EL6244 is a high-performance three channel laser driver that provides controlled current to a grounded laser diode. Channels 2 and 3 should be used as the write channels, with switching speeds of approximately one nanosecond rise/fall time. All three channels are summed together at the IOUToutput, allowing the user to create multilevel waveforms in order to optimize laser diode
performance.
