The B Series Butterfly 915nm 1.5W laser diode is a sophisticated component designed for high-performance applications. Encased in a hermetically sealed package, this laser diode ensures reliability and longevity by protecting the internal components from environmental factors. The inclusion of an internal thermoelectric cooler (TEC), thermistor, and photodiode allows for precise temperature control and monitoring, which is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and extending the lifespan of the device.

One of the standout features of this laser diode is its electrically isolated design, which enhances safety and reduces the risk of electrical interference. The device is equipped with a 100μm core, 0.22 numerical aperture (NA) fiber, and a 1.0m output fiber, offering flexibility in integration with various systems. Additionally, the product provides numerous fiber and connector options, allowing for customization to meet specific application needs.

Operating at a wavelength of 915nm with a typical power output of 1.5W, this laser diode is engineered for continuous wave (CW) operation. It is important to note that the device is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD), and proper precautions should be taken to prevent damage. Users are advised to wear an ESD wrist strap and ground all applicable work surfaces during handling. Furthermore, the device must be operated within the specified parameters to avoid potential failure or safety hazards.

Temperature management is critical for the B Series Butterfly laser diode, as device degradation can accelerate with increased temperatures. The specified case temperature range for continuous wave operation is -20°C to 50°C, and storage temperatures should be maintained between -40°C and 85°C. Proper heatsinking and cooling are essential to ensure the device operates within these limits and to maintain its warranty.

This laser diode is intended as a component of an electronic product and is not certified under IEC 60825-1 or 21 CFR 1040.10/21 CFR 1040.11 standards. It is subject to Export Administration Regulations (EAR), requiring a Destination Control Statement or End User Agreement for each sales order.
