[0093] In S1, the power supply data of the laser driver is collected in real time and converted into digital signals, including:

[0094] A voltage sensor, a current sensor and a temperature sensor are respectively installed at the power supply node of the laser driver;

[0095] Each sensor collects real-time data of the laser driver respectively. When collecting real-time data, the sensor signal is amplified, filtered and isolated through the signal processing network;

[0096] The conditioned analog signal is input into an analog-to-digital converter, and the analog signal of the sensor is converted into a digital signal through the analog-to-digital converter;

[0097] The digital signal includes a voltage digital signal, a current digital signal, a temperature digital signal, a power digital signal and a status signal;

[0098] The voltage digital signal, current digital signal, temperature digital signal, power digital signal and status signal are uniformly labeled as real-time power supply signals.

[0099] Specifically, by installing voltage, current and temperature sensors, the laser driver can be accurately monitored to ensure that it operates under optimal conditions, improve performance and stability, obtain data on key parameters in real time, and be able to detect abnormal conditions in a timely manner, which helps to respond quickly and take corrective measures to avoid equipment damage or performance degradation.

By synchronizing the phase and time of the modulated signal, it is ensured that multiple signals remain consistent when output, avoiding interference or distortion caused by phase differences between signals. Using an isolation amplifier for signal isolation can effectively avoid interference and coupling between the signal source and the laser driver, and protect the stability and safety of the signal source. Signal isolation can prevent voltage or current from damaging signal equipment, thereby improving the overall safety of the system.

[0142] Specifically, by extracting and setting the target power, frequency, pulse width and phase of each output, precise control of each output channel is achieved to meet the needs of different applications. Multiple output channels can be controlled simultaneously by using a multiplexer, which improves the work efficiency and flexibility of the system and adapts to complex multi-channel application scenarios. A monitoring module is installed on each output channel to monitor the quality of the output signal and the operating status of the driver in real time, provide instant feedback, and ensure the reliability of the system. The monitoring data includes output power, frequency, waveform and temperature, etc., providing comprehensive output signal characteristic information, which is helpful for in-depth analysis and optimization of driver performance. Through sound and light alarms, control panel indications and remote early warning notifications, users are promptly reminded of abnormal conditions, improving the safety and response speed of the system. The early warning data contains the type of abnormality, the time of occurrence and the affected output channel information, which is convenient for users to quickly locate and deal with problems. The driver control strategy is automatically adjusted and corrected according to the early warning data to ensure that the system can quickly recover to the best state after the abnormality occurs, and improve the system's adaptive ability.

[0149] Comparing the comprehensive power output quality parameter corresponding to the multiple output channels with a preset power output quality parameter threshold;

[0150] When the comprehensive power output quality parameter corresponding to the multiple output channels is not lower than the preset power output quality parameter threshold, the frequency, waveform and temperature in the monitoring data of each output channel are retrieved to determine the operation quality of the multiple output channels.

[0151] The technical effect of the above technical solution is: the solution can timely detect abnormal conditions of the laser driver by real-time monitoring of the monitoring data (including output power, frequency, waveform and temperature) of each output channel. This real-time monitoring mechanism helps to quickly respond to and deal with potential problems, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system. By calculating the comprehensive power output quality parameter Q corresponding to multiple output channels, the solution can comprehensively evaluate the power output quality of the laser driver. This parameter comprehensively considers multiple factors such as output power, frequency, waveform and temperature, and weights them through weight coefficients to make the evaluation results more accurate and comprehensive. The weight coefficient is introduced in the solution, so that the degree of influence of different output channels and different monitoring parameters in the comprehensive evaluation can be flexibly adjusted. This design helps to fine-tune the evaluation results according to actual needs and improve the accuracy and practicality of the evaluation. When the comprehensive power output quality parameter is not lower than the preset power output quality parameter threshold, the solution will further retrieve the frequency, waveform and temperature in the monitoring data of each output channel to determine the operating quality of the multiple output channels. This judgment mechanism helps to timely discover and deal with potential problems that affect the operating quality, ensuring that the laser driver can work continuously and stably. Through real-time monitoring, comprehensive evaluation, and operation quality determination, the solution can promptly detect and resolve problems in the laser driver's multi-channel output control process, thereby optimizing and improving the overall performance of the system. This helps reduce failure rates, improve production efficiency, and provide users with a better experience.

These effects work together in the multi-channel output control process of the laser driver, which helps to improve the stability and reliability of the system and optimize the overall performance.

[0153] Specifically, when the comprehensive power output quality parameter corresponding to the multiple output channels is not lower than a preset power output quality parameter threshold, the frequency, waveform and temperature in the monitoring data of each output channel are retrieved to determine the operation quality of the multiple output channels, including:

[0154] When the comprehensive power output quality parameter corresponding to the multiple output channels is not lower than a preset power output quality parameter threshold, the frequency, waveform and temperature in the monitoring data of each output channel are retrieved;

[0155] Obtaining operation quality evaluation coefficients corresponding to the multiple output channels using the frequency, waveform and temperature in the monitoring data of each output channel combined with the comprehensive power output quality parameters corresponding to the multiple output channels;

[0156] The operation quality evaluation coefficient corresponding to the multiple output channels is obtained by the following formula:

[0157]

[0158] Where K represents the operation quality evaluation coefficient corresponding to multiple output channels; n represents the total number of output channels; F i represents the frequency standard deviation of the i-th output channel; W i represents the standard deviation of the waveform offset amplitude of the i-th output channel; T i represents the standard deviation of the temperature signal of the i-th output channel; Q represents the comprehensive power output quality parameter corresponding to multiple output channels; Q y Indicates the preset power output quality parameter threshold; W pi Indicates the waveform offset of the i-th output channel; T ci Indicates the temperature value in the monitoring data corresponding to the i-th output channel; F ci Represents the frequency value of the i-th output channel;

[0159] Comparing the operation quality evaluation coefficients corresponding to the multiple output channels with a preset coefficient threshold;

[0160] When the operation quality evaluation coefficient corresponding to the multiple output channels is lower than a preset coefficient threshold, it is determined that there is an abnormal risk in the overall operation of the multiple output channels, and an abnormal risk warning is issued.

[0161] The technical effect of the above technical solution is: the solution not only considers the comprehensive power output quality parameters, but also combines the monitoring data of multiple dimensions such as frequency, waveform and temperature to comprehensively evaluate the operation quality of multiple output channels. This multi-dimensional evaluation method can more accurately reflect the actual operation status of the laser driver and improve the accuracy and reliability of the evaluation. By calculating the operation quality evaluation coefficient K corresponding to the multiple output channels and comparing it with the preset coefficient threshold, the solution can realize the refined monitoring of the operation quality of multiple output channels. When the K value is lower than the preset threshold, the system can issue an abnormal risk warning in time to remind the operator to pay attention and take corresponding measures to avoid the occurrence of potential faults. Although the application of weight coefficients is not explicitly mentioned in the solution, sufficient flexibility is reserved to adjust the influence of relevant parameters (such as standard deviation, offset, etc.) in the formula according to actual needs. In addition, through the preset power output quality parameter threshold and coefficient threshold, flexible adaptation to different application scenarios and performance requirements can be achieved. The solution realizes real-time monitoring of multiple output channels and can dynamically obtain and process monitoring data. This real-time monitoring mechanism helps to discover and deal with potential problems in a timely manner and improve the response speed and stability of the system. Through comprehensive operation quality evaluation and refined abnormal risk warning, this solution helps to timely discover and solve problems existing in the laser driver's multi-channel output control process. This can not only optimize the overall performance of the system, but also effectively prevent the occurrence of failures, reduce maintenance costs and production losses. Combining the above effects, this technical solution can significantly improve the reliability of the laser driver's multi-channel output control system. Through a comprehensive monitoring, evaluation and early warning mechanism, it ensures that the system can operate continuously and stably, providing users with more reliable services.
