LDC-3916 Modular 16-Channel Laser Diode Controller

This video shows Aaron Browning, Product Specialist, ILX Lightwave Instruments, MKS Instruments, Inc., demonstrating the capability range of the LDC-3916 Multi-Channel Modular Platform. The instrument includes interchangeable modules, which enable users to control temperature control modules or multiple laser diodes. Modular mainframes and modules are a cost- and space-efficient method of controlling. This demonstration shows a mainframe, several laser diode packages, and an optical multimeter with a new infrared detector head.  

The LDC-3916 mainframe uses any combination of up to 16 compatible modules. It can be rack–mounted or used as a bench-top instrument. Other features include a wide variety of current and temperature control modules, dual channel laser current or temperature control modules, GPIB/IEEE488 or RS-232 remote control interface, low noise/high stability modules for constant power modes or constant current, and direct modulation up to 1 MHz.
