Abstract

See full text

Examples are disclosed herein that relate to driving a resonant scanning mirror system using a linear LC resonant driving scheme. In one example, a resonant scanning mirror system includes a scanning mirror, first and second mirror drive elements, and a drive circuit to drive the scanning mirror at a resonant frequency. The drive circuit includes one or more signal sources configured to create a first source signal and a second source signal that is 180 degrees out of phase with the first source signal. The drive circuit further includes a buffer stage configured to receive the first and second source signals and output first and second drive signals, a first resonant LC stage configured to amplify the first drive signal for provision to the first mirror drive element, and a second resonant LC stage configured to amplify the second drive signal for provision to the second mirror drive element.
