Laser Components offers the complete range of PicoLAS laser drivers. PicoLAS is a specialist manufacturer of laser drive electronics founded in 2005 by Dr. Markus Bartram.
PicoLAS recently introduced a new generation of compact drivers for high power laser diodes. The LDP-CW series offers continuous wave (CW) output current to analogue modulated waveforms such as sinusoidal, rectangular or triangular. The innovative current regulation concept of the LDP-CW series produces considerably fewer losses compared to the commonly used linear regulation concept.
The LDP-CW 250-40 driver achieves 10kW in a size less than a third of a shoe box! With the F version the output can be modulated with up to 50kHz which enables to rapid adjustment of the current with rise times of < 20µs.

The LDP-C series offers flexible pulse durations from 1μs up to CW with a duty cycle of up to 100%. For many models the almost instantaneous output current allows current rise times of typ. 400ns to 5μs with a maximum current of up to 120A. Most of the LDP-C series drivers (≥ 80A/20V) are equipped with the STACKPROTECTOR, integrated protection for your laser diode.
