Laser Diode Mount, ILX Model LDM-4984

ILX Lightwave model: LDM-4984
The ILX Lightwave LDM-4984 butterfly packaged laser diode mount is high performance mounting and control solution for industry standard butterfly packaged devices. An optional integrated TEC module provides a wide temperature control range and fine tunes the temperature for spectroscopic applications. The LDM-4984 is designed for typical 14-pin telecommunication butterfly laser diode packages. Zero insertion force (ZIF) sockets and clamping arms make mounting of laser diodes simple and fast. The LDM-4984 LD mount from ILX Lightwave offers industry standard 9 pin D-sub input connectors and also offers configurable pin designations to accommodate multiple configurations.
The LDM-4980 Series of Laser Diode Mounts provide a compact, easy-to-use solution for laser diode fixturing. These mounts are available in DIL, mini-OIL, butterfly, and connectorized laser diode package versions. Butterfly versions are available for 7-pin, 13-pin, 14-pin, 20-pin, and 26-pin packages. This series of mounts accommodates most telecom laser module types including CW, direct modulated (Bias-T), 2.5 Gbits/s, 10 Gbits/s, and tunable DFB laser modules.
Each mount features ILX Lightwave's standard 9-pin D-sub input connectors with pin designations to accommodate virtually any laser diode pin configuration. Zero insertion force (ZIF) sockets and spring-loaded clamps facilitate ease of mounting. Bias-T options include a 50W SMA input connector and circuitry for directly modulating the laser drive current.
