| Zusammenfassung: | A system and method for individually controlling channels of a multi-channel optical communications system are described. The optical communications system uses optical transmitters such as semi-conductor lasers for each channel. A drive circuit provides energizing energy to each laser in order to generate a modulated output. In the present invention a programmable memory such as an EPROM is used to individually control drive conditions for each laser in order to tailor the output. |
