ABSTRACT:
Optical scanning apparatus which includes an A/D converter control circuit for matching the conversion range of an A/D converter to the range of an analog signal produced by a photo-sensitive detector in response to radiation originating from a radiation source such as a laser. The converter produces a binary overflow signal which signifies whether the analog signal is within or above the conversion range of the converter. Depending on the binary value of the overflow signal, a control signal generator produces either an increasing or decreasing control signal which is returned in a feedback loop to the radiation source to control the radiation intensity or to the converter to adjust its conversion range.
