SDC-BT Diode Driver Overview The SDC-BT diode driver is a sophisticated solution designed for the precise control and operation of medium-power Nd:YAG-like solid-state lasers. This family of laser diode drivers integrates a variety of components, including an embedded current source, a buffer capacitor bank, and a capacitor charger. Additionally, it features one or two TEC modules, providing robust thermal management capabilities. The SDC-BT is adept at powering and controlling a Pockels cell driver, facilitating the generation of Q-switched pulses. This capability is complemented by its ability to send adjustable output synchronization signals to other equipment, ensuring seamless integration into complex laser systems.

The design of the SDC-BT diode driver emphasizes reliability and efficiency, making it an ideal choice for demanding applications. Its wide-range input voltage capability (110-240VAC) ensures compatibility with various power sources, while the model-dependent output current and voltage options provide flexibility to meet specific operational requirements. The driver supports pulse widths typical for Nd:YAG pumping, with fast rise times that are adjustable to suit different applications. This adaptability is further enhanced by the driver's capacity to handle maximum average output power ranging from 60 to 90 watts, depending on the model.

Incorporating advanced thermal management, the SDC-BT diode driver includes high-power and low-power TEC modules. These modules ensure optimal operating temperatures, enhancing the performance and longevity of the laser system. The driver also features a user-friendly interface with a 5-inch touchscreen display, facilitating easy operation and monitoring. With built-in protections against overheating, voltage irregularities, and other potential issues, the SDC-BT diode driver is engineered for safe and reliable operation in a variety of environments.
