FL-500 Laser Diode Driver
Description
The FL500 is ideal for driving low power laser diodes. It operates from 3 to 12 V, so is compatible with Li+ battery operation. It can be configured as two totally independent 250 mA drivers or a single 500 mA driver. Compatible with Type A or B laser diodes. The FL500 allows for quick and easy operation in Constant Current (CC) mode. For simple CC mode operation the only components that are required are a power supply, an analog control voltage, your laser and optional filtering circuitry. For additional features, including current limit and photodiode feedback for Constant Power operation, the FL500 can be used with the FL591 evaluation board
