Have you ever wondered what terms like TTL and Analog mean? Do you want to understand the differences between Linear and DC to DC converter based Laser diode drivers as well as their pros and cons? Look no further because in this video I run through why Lasers need drivers, the circuit theory and architecture of Laser diode drivers and how to get the best performance possible without risk of damage to your Laser diode.

This is not a Laser driver recommendation video! Do not ask me to recommend a driver as I make/modify my own. This is a video to teach you how to evaluate a driver with your own brain. If you ask I WILL recommend a high end driver with top notch product support and not a low price budget driver.
