4 Amp Laser Diode Controller, ILX Model LDC-3744C

ILX Lightwave model LDC-3744C

The LDC-37X4C series from ILX Lightwave is a high stability precision laser diode current source and temperature controller. Multiple layers of laser diode protection ensure that your device is protected at all times, while the ultra-stable temperature controller provides fast and efficient heat removal from the laser diode under test.
An easy to use and intuitive front panel interface is complemented by standard GPIB and USB rear panel connections which are offered with LabView drivers. The 3700C is offered with your choice of 500mA or 4 Amp outputs and is used extensively in R&D Labs and manufacturing environments around the world.
