Description
The SCW 1532-500R laser diode module is a sophisticated and high-performance device designed for demanding optical test equipment applications. This module operates at a wavelength of 1550 nm and is built using an Aluminum Ridge Waveguide (RWG) Fabry-Pérot (F/P) laser diode. It is encased in a robust 14-pin butterfly package, ensuring durability and reliability. The laser diode is optically coupled to a single-mode fiber (SMF) pigtail, which facilitates efficient light transmission. Additionally, the module integrates a thermoelectric cooler and an electrically isolated temperature sensing thermistor, providing precise thermal management to maintain optimal operating conditions.
Designed with high peak pulsed optical power in mind, the SCW 1532-500R is ideal for applications requiring robust performance and reliability. The module is fully compliant with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, underscoring its environmentally friendly design. It is engineered to operate efficiently within a wide temperature range, making it suitable for various environments and conditions.
Safety and handling precautions are paramount for the SCW 1532-500R laser diode module. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions are necessary to protect the device from potential damage. The module is classified as IEC Class 1 when operated under rated conditions, ensuring that normal aversion reactions will mitigate any radiation hazards to the eyes. Users are advised to consult their product purchase agreement or contact their LDI sales representative for warranty details and additional information.
