EBD SLED Driver Boards Exalos OEM and R&D Models; SLED Package DIL, BTF, TOSA; Driver Compliance 0 to 600 mA, 1.0 to 2.7 V; Current Noise <150 µA rms; Current Stability Peak-to-Peak 0.07%, 0.10%; Control Interface Analog In, Digital In/Out

With the EBD series, EXALOS provides low-noise, ultra-stable RGB and NIR SLED driver boards, optimized for interferometric applications like OCT or fiber sensing.

EBD SLED driver boards are high-performance analog driver boards that consists of a multi-layer PCB board with a multi-pin connector to which adapter boards can be connected supporting various types of optical modules, for example 14-pin butterfly (BTF), 14-pin dual-in-line (DIL), transmit optical sub-assembly (TOSA) or others.

EXALOS driver boards deliver ultra-stable low-noise performance for both OEM and R&D applications. The cost-effective OEM version of the driver board allows customers to reduce their R&D spending, improve time-to-market and reduce the number of suppliers. New 3-channel RGB and NIR Driver Boards are equipped with USB remote programming interface and current modulation.

The R&D driver boards feature a display board to control the most important SLED parameters. EXALOS driver boards are especially designed to handle noisy, spiky or unstable supply voltages.
