PLDD-200-1-1

200 Amp, Single Bar, 1 Hz, Pulsed Laser Diode Driver

The PLDD-200-1-1 is an ultra-miniature, battery operated, laser diode driver for driving a single laser diode bar to 200 amps of peak current.  Due to the compact size and weight (less than 1 oz), this unit is well suited for man‐portable and airborne applications.

The magnitude of the output current is controlled either by an on‐board potentiometer or a user supplied DC voltage.  The input trigger signal controls the pulse width.

The optional Universal Interface Board (UIB-01) allows the user easy access to all control pins. Commonly used signals on the UIB-01 are available through BNC connections such as the input trigger and the current monitor which allows the user a real time view of the current.

The PLDD-200-1-1 can be powered by a +5 volt supply. Contact factory for battery operation.
