VCSEL driver

Highly integrated VCSEL driver ICs for small module size and low BOM

anchor

Overview

Infineon's VCSEL drivers have been developed with a focus on driving fast switching dual- or triple-junction VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) providing optimal power efficiency and seamless integration. The devices are optimized for 3D vision camera systems in combination with Infineon’s REAL3™ Time-of-Flight (ToF) imagers and are suitable to other active infrared applications like laser distance scanner (LDS) and other lidar systems.

Key Features

  • Fast-switching laser diodes or LEDs
  • Tailored to high-performance 3D cam
  • Fast rise and fall times < 0.8 ns
  • Low power consumption
  • Built-in fail-safe functions
  • Small IC footprint
