Picosecond Laser Diode Driver (LDD/TEC) Innolume – pulse driver from 50 ps

The Picosecond Laser Diode Driver (LDD/TEC) from Innolume is designed to generate very short laser pulses with widths down to 50 picoseconds. The pulsed current driver and the thermoelectric cooling (TEC) driver are integrated in a single, compact housing, designed to work with a 14- or 10-pin butterfly mount.

What is a picosecond laser diode driver (LDD/TEC)?

It is a pulse driver that forces ultra-short current pulses of picosecond order on the laser diode, while stabilizing the module temperature with a TEC driver. It delivers the shortest pulses in the Innolume driver lineup (from 50 ps) while retaining a compact design and easy integration. A variant with a synchronization input (SYNC) and one with a factory-installed, ready-to-run laser diode are also available.

Key features

Integrated and compact design: 2 A current driver and 1.5 A TEC driver in a single housing.
Very short pulse: minimum pulse width of 50 ps.
High repetition: pulse repetition rate up to 30 MHz.
Multiple interfaces: USB, RS-232, CAN and UART.
Mounting options: 14-pin or 10-pin butterfly mount.
SYNC variant: synchronization input for operation with external systems.
Ready to run: option with a factory-installed laser diode.
