Coaxial Packaged Laser Diode Driver & Mount Module; Coax/TO-Can Laser Mount

Product Overview:

Integrated Coaxial Laser Diode Driver + Coaxial Laser Mount:

These fully integrated laser diode controller and mounting modules for coaxial fiber-coupled packaged devices are designed for cost effective precision control of semiconductor lasers in research labs. These controllers provide a low noise CW laser diode current source with pre-configured mounting plate. The mounting plate for the laser has a high surface flatness and finish to provide a low thermal impedance between the package at the heat sink base.

Laser Diode Protection Features Overview:

The integrated laser diode protection circuits protect your device under test at all times. A user set current limit clamps the bias current to prevent damage to the laser. A soft-start current ramp to the user defined current set-point protects the laser from the possibility of thermal shock or current surges. Also, the integration of the mounting socket directly with the current source simplifies the wiring connections from the from the controller to the laser package. This greatly reduces the likelihood of ESD damage to the laser which can occur from plugging and unplugging cables. Set-point and limits are set using a simple one screen graphical user interface which is opened when you connect your PC to the USB interface. The GUI control software is included with the purchase price and offers users simple set-up and control.
