Abstract:
1. A light beam scanning apparatus, comprising: an image processor configured to generate a plurality of control signals from image data so as to form a series of pixels along a common scan line; a plurality of modulators configured to modulate said plurality of control signals for said series of pixels along said common scan line, each of said plurality of modulators having the same pixel clock time between successive pixels along said common scan line; a plurality of laser drivers configured to generate a laser driver signal from said plurality of the modulated control signals; a light beam generating unit configured to generate a light beam being driven by said plurality of laser drivers, wherein each of said plurality of laser drivers is coupled to a corresponding one of said plurality of modulators so as to generate a laser driver signal from a corresponding modulated signal, and wherein said plurality of laser drivers are electrically coupled to said light beam generating unit such that said light beam is driven by said laser driver signals.
