Analog Devices ADN8820 EDFA and CW Laser Controller Preliminary Technical Data
The ADN8820 is a continuous wave (CW) and Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) laser diode driver and controller designed for telecommunication systems. It provides low noise and precise current control, supporting four operational modes: Constant Current (CC), Constant Laser Power (CLP), Constant Output Power (COP), and Constant EDFA Gain (CG). The device supports both common-cathode-to-ground and common-anode-to-VDD configurations.
