ComboSource is the Arroyo Instruments' line of precision and low noise laser and LED diode controllers, integrating current driver and temperature control in one box.
The ComboSource series brings together the best of both worlds: the high precision, stability and low noise of the LaserSource series of current controllers and a powerful 60W temperature controller from the TecSource series.
The current controller part has the features that would be expected from any controller, such as safety interlock, ESD protection, and current and voltage limiting circuits. But in addition the LaserSource range has unique characteristics that are not found in competing driver products such as
- optically isolated photodiode and modulation inputs (avoid "ground loops")
- programmable PD bias
- constant voltage control mode
- Dual current range: improves noise and accuracy in the low current range (half the total) while reaching high currents
Key features: combined laser current and temperature controller in one box
- Laser: up to 18V
- Laser: great precision and stability and low noise
- 60W TEC (5A, 12V)
- TEC: Autotune: automatic calculation of PID parameters
- TEC: fully controllable PID settings
- TEC: simultaneous display of current temperature, target temperature, current and voltage
- Large VFD data viewer, visible with laser protection glasses
- Advanced diode protection
- versions supporting Quantum Cascade Lasrs (QCL)
- USB2.0 and RS232; control software
- Command compatibility for Newport and ILX Lightwave
