Detailed Description
The LDD-1301 laser diode driver from Meerstetter Engineering is a highly precise and reliable solution for the power supply of laser diodes, especially for applications in CW (continuous wave) operation. The driver provides stable and efficient current, which is crucial for the lifetime and performance of laser diodes. The low ripple output current ensures that the laser diodes are operated constantly and without interference, which is required for high-precision optical measurements and signals.
With a high energy efficiency of over 95% the LDD-1301 optimizes energy consumption and reduces heat generation. This efficiency, combined with cooling via the base plate, enables operation in systems where space and cooling are limited.
The laser diode driver LDD-1301 offers a variety of communication interfaces such as USB 2.0, RS485, RS232 TTL and CANopen CiA 301, allowing easy integration into a wide range of systems. This flexibility in communication toghether with the free of charge LDD-130x Service Software allows easy control and fault diagnosis in real time.
One of the outstanding safety functions of the LDD-1301 is the switch-off mechanism, which protects the laser diodes in the event of overcurrent or overvoltage. This is particularly important in sensitive applications where sudden current peaks could lead to irreparable damage. In addition, the integration of temperature sensors enables continuous monitoring of the laser diodes and provides an early warning in the event of temperature deviations, which also helps to extend the service life. An interlock input provides an additional safety level, which is particularly important in critical applications to ensure safe operation of the laser diodes.
Equipped with optional light measurement circuitry, the LDD-1301-LPC can also be operated as a Laser Power Controller (LPC).
