    摘要: Laser power control arrangements interrupt power to a laser used in electro-optical readers upon detection of an over-power condition not conforming to preestablished regulatory standards. In one embodiment, during an operational mode, a difference between laser drive currents at two operating points is compared to a difference between laser drive currents at the same two operating points during a calibration mode. The over-power condition is recognized when the difference during the operational mode exceeds the difference during the calibration mode by a predetermined amount. In another embodiment, the laser is only energized to emit the beam at a reduced power level well below regulatory standards for staring at even if a motor drive failed.

    摘要: A piezoelectric activated dither suspension system for a ring laser gyroscope has all of the transducer elements connected in parallel to simultaneously produce sustaining torque for dither motion and respond to a back component of current produced by the vibrational motion of the gyro block. The generated current, separated from drive currents from the torquer amplifier by a transformer or, in an alternative embodiment, by sensing resistors, produces the very signal used to control and sustain the oscillations. By utilizing all transducers both as torquer and pickoff elements, economies of drive efficiency, wiring simplification and circuit redundancies are achieved.
