LASER SAFETY FEATURES
In order to protect laser diodes, all LDD P series drivers
are equipped with current limit protection, as well as slow
start circuitry. Current limit protection ensures that the
diode will not be overdriven, and the slow start circuitry
protects the diode from thermal shock that can damage
the laser at turn on.
