Range finders are used for a wide range of tasks, from measuring the distance to an object a few feet away to the distance between the moon and the earth. They work by sending a group of energy pulses ...

[Les] from [Les’ Lab] has designed a driver for laser diodes up to 10 watts, and decided to show us how it operates, tells us what we should keep in mind when designing such a driver, and talks about ...

In low power laser diode modules the designer has the option to use the classical discrete solution or take advantage of fully integrated driver ICs. Often the component cost is the only driving ...

This circuit was designed to meet a medical application’s requirement to drive a laser diode with reasonable precision and a minimum of components and footprint (the device is now in clinical trials).

LASER COMPONENTS has established long term supply partnerships with several of the world’s leading laser diode and laser diode driver suppliers. We work closely with our partners to offer a ...

MILPITAS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SiliconCore Technology, a leading fabless analog products company, today announced that the US Patent Office has approved its patent application for “Higher ...

The laser driver consists of a high-speed modulation driver, laser-biasing block, and a pulse-width adjustment control circuit.

See this diagram,I've been told the the proprietary drivers offer some extra protection from very short spikes (on power up and shutdown) in the current which laser diodes are very sensitive to ...
