Digital Electronics Allow Customers to Learn More about Their Laser

US33-074

More information for customers: Selected FLEXPOINT^® laser modules can now be equipped with microprocessors. Via a serial UART interface, users can monitor, for example, the operating hours or the temperature on the inside.

But not only that: the interface also allows the modules to very easily and quickly be digitally or analogously modulated. In addition, the digital electronics allow greater power stability; depending on the laser diode, the fluctuations are only 1-2% (in analog circuits, this value can reach up to 5%).

Microprocessor-controlled laser electronics offer many technical possibilities: Together with our customer, we agree on which parameters are necessary for the application and which information should be readout from the laser module. We would be happy to exchange ideas with you.

We currently implement digital electronics based on customer requests or automatically in laser modules having ambitious specifications. At the moment, this new technology is available for the following products:

• Dot and line lasers
• Long-range alignment lasers
• MVmicro series image processing lasers
