ILX Lightwave model: Model 560B
The Newport 560B series precision laser diode driver offers multiple protection features in addition to a high stability and very low noise output. An easy to use and intuitive front panel interface is complemented by a standard USB rear panel connection which is offered with LabView drivers. Comprehensive laser diode safety features and user safety have been thoroughly analyzed and designed into every 500B Series Laser Diode Driver, complying with CE and CDRH standards. Refer to Section 1, Safety Precautions for more details. Redundant FET and relay shorting circuits protect the laser diode at the beginning of the slow turn-on sequence. After a short delay, the output current slowly ramps to your preset operating level. The current limit setting. External analog modulation allows you to control the voltage or modulate the output. In the high bandwidth mode, you can modulate the laser up to 1000
kHz (Model 501B). For precision laser output power control, or wavelength tuning with external control circuitry, you can slowly modulate the laser output in the low bandwidth mode and maintain low noise operation.
