1,5A QCL Driver - QCL1500
The QCL OEM Series drivers use patented1 circuitry to produce the lowest current noise density of any commercially available QCL driver. The 500 mA QCL driver exhibits noise performance of 0.5 µA RMS to 100 kHz, and average current noise density of 1 nA / √Hz - the lowest available. In order to maintain their characteristically tight center linewidths and minimize jitter, quantum cascade lasers must be powered by drivers with exceptionally low current noise density. Our customers have reported achieving narrower linewidths with these drivers than any other they've used.Key Features Off-the-shelf models at 500 mA, 1 A, 1.5 A, 2 A Can be delivered in other current ranges up to 2 A Compliance voltage 16 V (standard), Compliance 7-20 V with factory modification Safety features protect your QCL investment Adjustable soft-clamping current limit Brown-out, reverse-voltage, & over-voltage protection Driver over-temperature protection circuit Relay shorts output when current is disabled Local and Remote Power-On and Enable control,TTL-compatible Analog modulation input between -5V and +5V.
