Solution for Powering and Controlling DPSS Nd:YAG Lasers
SDC-150A from OEM Tech is a complete solution for powering and controlling a diode-pumped, solid-state (DPSS) Nd:YAG laser. This module includes a pulsed current source to drive pumping diodes, TEC controller for their thermal stabilization, and embedded Pockels cell driver for generation of Q-switched pulses. The module requires a 28 V DC (±7 V) power supply.
The SDC-150A can be controlled either digitally via RS-232 interface or manually using jumpers and trimpots (stand-alone mode). The base interface is RS-232, and RS-485 is also available as an option. Simple PC software is supplied together with the controller.
The module csn be synchronized internally (when pulses are generated according to the internal clock) or externally (when pulses with user fixed width are triggered by external synchronization signal).
The cooling, when needed, is performed through the heatsink attached to the bottom surface.
Features of SDC-150A include:
- The module consists of pulsed current source, TEC controller and Pockels cell driver (DKDP or LiNbO3)
- Input: 28±7 V DC
- Output diode current: up to 150 A, 25 V, 300 µs, 30 Hz (but 20 W max)
- Pulse width: 50 – 300 µs
- Repetition rate: up to 30 Hz
- Rise / fall time: < 50 µs
- Modifications are possible
Many parameters of the SDC-150A can be tailored to your needs. Some of them are listed below:
- Output voltage / current for diodes
- Output voltage (Pockels cell driver)
- Reduced or bursted output power
- Interfaces
- Type and location of connectors
