Abstract
A control apparatus for driving a laser diode comprises an output connection for connecting the laser diode, a regulation device for generating an output signal, a detector device which is designed to determine a regulation variable when the regulation device provides the output signal and the laser diode is connected to the output connection. The control apparatus furthermore comprises a computer device for providing a control signal for the regulation device, wherein the computer device provides the control signal independently of the regulation variable. The regulation device is designed in such a way that it generates a level for the output signal depending on the control signal and the determined regulation variable.
