The LDP-V 50-100 is a small and inexpensive source for generating nanosecond pulses. The device is optimized for pulse repetition rates from single shot up to MHz repetition rate with duty cycles up to 59%**. Its typical application is driving pulsed laser diodes. Those can be mounted directly onto the LDP-V, eliminating the need for strip lines. The diode must be electrically isolated from earth (chassis) ground. Compatible laser diode packages: TO-18, TO-5, TO-52, 5.6 mm, 9 mm, and similar. Despite its small size, the LDP-V is designed for ease of use. It eliminates the need for multiple peripheral supply units. A single 15 .. 24 V DC supply and a triggering signal are all which is required for operation. Additionally, you can upgrade the LDP-V with the PLCS-21 controller to enable USB 2.0 communication with a PC or the external operating unit PLB-21.
