Drivers

The first thing I think of when referring to a driver is CD. In fact, the content of a CD can only be called drive program. The “optical drive” for reading a CD is the most common drive in the computer field—the CD drive. So what is the driver in the electronics field?

In a broad sense, a driver is a hardware that drives another substance or device. In fact, in addition to the drive capability, it often has high requirements for other indicators. For example, ATI's laser drivers, besides driving high efficiency, low noise, and high power laser diodes, also feature high voltage, constant current, low-noise, high efficiency, compact size, and dual-channel. Due to its high efficiency, most laser drivers do not require a heat sink.

The performance of electronic products is often affected by temperature, so heat dissipation and cooling are inevitable. When it comes to temperature, you have to mention ATI's another product, TEC driver or TEC controller. TEC modules are applied in many high-precision technology fields. The requirements for TEC drivers are also very strict, and ATI's TEC drivers can keep the temperature of the object at a set value with temperature control accuracy as high as 0.01°C. In addition, it is also characterized by high energy efficiency, small size, and zero EMI. The product's maximum input and output voltage values are optional and can also be customized for your projects. The newly developed TEC controller, TEC28V15A, is even more popular with reservations in short supply.

After talking about the laser driver and TEC driver, let's talk about ATI's another driver series, Piezo Driver. Piezo driver is used to efficiently drive large piezoelectric systems with an input voltage of 5V and an output voltage range of -30V to 300V. This Piezo driver features a wide operating frequency, fast response, high conversion efficiency, and a built-in waveform generator that can produce square wave, sine wave, triangle wave and other waveforms.
