Abstract

The invention discloses a laser working state control method and an optical module, and belongs to the technical field of optical communication. The laser working state control method is applied to the optical module; the laser working state control method comprises the steps of detecting whether a TEC current in the optical module is greater than a first current threshold value or not after the optical module is started for preset duration; and when the TEC current is greater than the first current threshold value, switching off the laser of the optical module. When a microcontroller unit detects whether the TEC current is greater than the first current threshold value or not, the laser is already in a stable working state, so that the TEC current change tends to be stable. Therefore, misjudgement caused by sudden change of the TEC current due to immediate detection after the microcontroller unit is powered on and started can be avoided, thereby avoiding the wrong switching-off of the laser after the laser is powered on and started.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical communication, in particular to a method for controlling the working state of a laser and an optical module. Background technique [0002] The laser is the light source device in the optical module, and its working performance and service life are closely related to the working temperature. In general, it is necessary to make the laser work in a stable low temperature environment as much as possible. [0003] In the related art, in order to prevent the working temperature of the laser from being too high and affect the life of the device, the optical module is usually provided with a control circuit for controlling the working temperature and working state of the laser. The control circuit mainly includes: a microcontroller, a semiconductor cooler (English: Thermo Electric Cooler; TEC for short), a TEC driver and a temperature sensor. Among them, the TEC can be attached to the laser to cool the ...
