Cool modules extend laser diode lifetimes
New thermoelectrically cooled laser diode modules offer exceptional wavelength and power stability, greatly increased pointing accuracy and significantly extended laser diode lifetime.
Red laser diode provides 10mW in small package
New from Photonic Products is the DL-LS1032, Sanyo's latest red laser diode, which provides 10mW of optical power in the 635nm wavelength band.
Not only are they remarkable for their tiny size, but the Sanyo DL-LS1148 and DL-LS1164 638nm laser diodes are part of a new range of laser diodes developed by Sanyo with a new diode type structure which results in a beam circularity ratio of 2:1, compared to the previous beam circularity ratio of 4:1.
The smallness of these laser diodes combined with their improved beam circularity results in significant cost savings for OEMs and makes them ideal for products such as laser levellers and line-markers, barcode scanners, machine vision and alignment and medical and dental imaging applications.
Supplied in a 5.6mm package, the Sanyo DL-LS1148 and DL-LS1164 laser diodes have a low threshold current of 65mA, low operating voltage of 2.4V, differential efficiency of 0.95mW/mA and an operating temperature range of -10 to +50C.
The Sanyo DL-LS1148 has a high output power of 40mW CW at a visible wavelength of 638nm, typical operating current of 110mA, monitor output current of 0.6mA and requires a negative (N type) power supply system.
The Sanyo DL-LS1164 has a high output power of 25mW CW at a visible wavelength of 638nm, typical operating current of 80mA, monitor output current of 0.3mA and requires a negative (N type) power supply system.
These Sanyo laser diodes are now lead-free in compliance with the RoHS Directive. Request a free brochure from Photonic Products ...
