Products
Pulsed Laser Diode Drivers
Current sources built to drive laser diodes and diode arrays. Compliance voltages to 120 V, output currents to 450 A, and pulse widths from one nanosecond to continuous wave.
How the line is organised
Instruments are complete benchtop or rackmount systems with front panel control. Modules are compact boards for OEM integration. Both come in pulsed and CW or quasi-CW variants. Every table below sorts on any column, so you can rank by compliance voltage, current, pulse width or rise time and find the right part quickly.
