The project describes the operation of a cheap keychain lasers that are being sold in low price. In theory, most common laser heads contains two semiconductors inside which includes a laser diode (LD) ...

Interfacing laser driver circuits with commercially available laser diodes at high data rates can be a complicated and frustrating task. This application note is intended to briefly address this topic ...

[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 ...

EPC has introduced a laser driver that integrates a 40 V, 10 A FET with integrated gate driver and 3.3 logic level input in a single chip for time-of-flight lidar systems used in robotics, ...

The new laser diode driver iC-HT permits microcontroller-based activation of laser diodes in CW mode. With this device laser diodes can be driven by either the optical output power (using APC), the ...

I'm back with the third part to my laser weapon series (see part one and two), and I'll be explaining the function, application, and potential of semiconductor lasers, aka laser diodes. Surely, most ...

Touted as the market's lowest-power laser diode driver, the MAX3930 is designed to directly modulate laser diodes at data rates up to 10.7 Gb/s while drawing only 108 mA from a single +5V or -5.2V ...

IXYS Corporation announced the introduction of the Development Kit for its PIM-Mini compact and lightweight laser diode driver by its IXYS Colorado division. IXYS Corp. announced the introduction of ...

Three years ago I bought a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet II printer. I plugged it in and put it to work, and it has been turning out beautiful documents ever since. It’s the best piece of computer ...
