Analog Modules, Inc., a provider of laser electronics and sensor modules for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), unmanned platforms and counter-UAS systems, has recently launched the new Model 789 OEM Continuous Wave & Pulsed Laser Diode Driver.
The new driver functions as a current-regulated buck converter, delivering programmable current to floating laser emitter diode loads. It is capable of providing an adjustable output current of up to 50 Amps and can support laser compliance voltages reaching 45 Volts.
Designed for high-power density, the Model 789 features a compact footprint but remains capable of driving loads up to 1500 W of average power. For pulsed operations, the unit can handle peak power up to 2.25 kW when provided with adequate cooling. To accommodate applications requiring even higher output currents, multiple units can be connected in parallel.
The device is built onto a PCB mounted on an aluminum plate, which serves as a heat spreader and sink. Due to the unit’s high efficiency, cooling requirements remain minimal. AMI has also integrated several safety features into the design, including temperature monitoring and protections against open circuits, short circuits, and adjustable current limits.
