Laser Diode Drive

PS3 diode failure?

So what is the main cause of these PS3s not reading/spinning any type disc?Some says that it was the blu-ray diode failure...is it true?So if someone change their PS3 whole laser part(with new blu-ray diode included),then it will be fixed?

Also,do you have any proof that the diode has something to do with the disc not spinning?i mean,the rotor inside the drive is the disc spinner,right?how come the diode can effect disc-spinning procedure?

I'm not having this problem so try not to urge me to send my console to sony.i just want to know the main cause...

If the disc is not spinning, then it's (most likely) problem with the motor, not the laser. Take it to the service.

Aaxa Technologies LP10001 L1 Laser Pico Projector $889.35 AAXA Technologies Inc was founded in 2008 as a developer of a new class of projector known as "micro projectors and "pico" projectors. Our core technology is based on small LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) imagers mated to LED (light emitting diode) lightsources that makes possible the manufacturing of micro projectors and pico sized projectors. AAXA Technologies proudly introduces the AAXA L1 Laser Pico Projector the world s first laser powered pico projector with an internal media player and storage. The unique threecolor laser light source enables the L1 to produce images with amazing color saturation that are always in focus. Designed for mobile professionals and entertainment the AAXA L1 pocket projector employs our PCOS technology. This technology combines a revolutionary laser light source proprietary despeckling technology and an LCoS imager to achieve 20 lumen output at 800x600 resolution without the pixelation problems found in some laser projectors. The flexibility offered by the L1 laser light source opens up a new world of possibilities in projection applications. The focusfree operation allows for rapid changes in projection size simultaneous far and near surface projection angled projection and projection on curved and other nonflat surfaces. With its ultraefficient optical engine the L1 can produce rich images even in lessthandark environments. When used in darker environments the L1 can produce colorrich images up to 50 . Professional features include VGA input support supporting up to 800x600 resolution for laptop connections and onboard gamma correction. Additional features include a powerful media player capable of decoding of video (AVI ASF WMV MPG) audio (MP3 WAV AAC) images (JPG GIF PNG BMP) and popular document formats (DOC XLS PPT PDF) onboard memory and a UBS port capable of reading files directly off a standard USB thumb drive (included). The L1 is ultramobile no larger than a small cell phone measuring only 4.2 x 2.1 x 0

How would I power on a laser from an old CD ROM drive?

I've taken apart a CD ROM drive. I understand the laser is weak, but I'd like to learn more about lasers and how to make them work. I've fully disassembled the entire thing, but I'm not sure how much power to input or how I would even do that.

Is there a standard power voltage?
How would I wire it?
Is it safe enough to do as long as I do not look directly into the lens?

I want to eventually be able to build my own laser lighter from a more powerful diode. Any help would be appreciated - thank you.

You would be better off putting git back together and once working, use tape to bypass the safety function of the drive. this will allow you to generate the laser without a CD and the cover off.
