Derate laser driver internal power dissipation by 34 mW / °C when operating above 25ºC. For the LDTC1020 with dual
FL500 chips, derating should be applied to both chips for a total of 68 mW / °C.
2
Modulation bandwidth in Constant Power mode is dependent on photodiode bandwidth, and is typically lower than the
bandwidth in Constant Current mode because of the frequency response of the photodiode.
