CXA2555Q
RF DC Amplifier
The signal currents from the photodiodes A, B, C and D are I-V converted and input to Pins 3 and 4 as PD1 =
A + C, PD2 = B + D.
These signals are added by the RF summing amplifier, inverted by the RF drive amplifier and output to Pin 32.
The VCA control voltage on Pin 28 is used for the gain adjustment.

The low frequency component of the RFO output voltage is as follows:
VRFO = 4.9 × (PD1 + PD2)
(RFC voltage = 1/2 VC)
Focus Error Amplifier
The operation of PD2-PD1 is performed and the resulting signal is output to Pin 15.
