Frequently Asked Questions

The NBD-0505-PWM discharge circuit is designed to simplify the development of IPL and/or solid-state laser systems by forming flashlamp pulses of rectangular or quasi-rectangular shape using energy stored in an external capacitor bank.

The main features include two outputs for PWM and free-discharge operations, advanced current control for true rectangular pulses, a powerful simmer board for driving two flashlamps in series, and serial triggering in both channels.

Output 1 (PWM) can handle up to 2000W, 500V, and 500A, with a pulse width ranging from 0.3ms to 100ms. It supports current and voltage stabilization regimes.

Output 2 (Free discharge) can handle up to 2000W, 800V, and 800A, with a pulse width ranging from 50us to 10ms.

The NBD-0505-PWM is not a stand-alone solution. It requires a capacitor charging power supply, a capacitor bank, and some minor parts and controls to operate properly.

The NBD-0505-PWM requires a +24V DC power supply with a maximum power consumption of up to 10A.

For capacitor bank and inductance coil connections, use FLEXI-2V or similar wires with >1000V rated voltage and >4mm² cross-section, keeping the length short (30cm recommended). For flashlamp connections, additional insulation or spacing is required due to serial triggering.
