Latest Patents
Mark Weitzner holds a patent for "Methods and devices for an electrically efficient green laser diode drive system with boost servo." This patent describes methods and devices for driving a laser diode. An example method includes a boost regulator that outputs a maximum boost voltage to drive a laser diode configured to output light within a wavelength range of 495 nanometers (nm) to 570 nm. The boost servo measures the laser voltage and calculates a voltage difference between the two voltages. It then compares the voltage difference to a drive voltage to determine an excess voltage, allowing the boost regulator to output an optimum voltage based on this excess voltage. Additionally, the boost servo calculates a low voltage to drive at least one additional component electrically coupled to the boost regulator when the laser diode is inactive, ensuring efficient power management.
