1500W laser diode driver SDC-4U is a family of pulsed drivers specifically designed to power high-power diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) lasers, such as Nd:YAG. Our module provides a 50-300 µs pulsed current to drive pump diodes, delivering up to 1500 W of average power. Pulse repetition rates can reach 50 Hz or higher on request.

The RS232 version of the SDC-4U optionally also capable of powering and controlling a Pockels cell driver for the generation of Q-switched pulses. The SDC-4U can send output synchronization signals to other equipment, either coincident with the TTL pulse applied to the Pockels cell driver or shifted relative to it.

All the important parameters for SDC-4U laser diode driver (such as output current, buffer voltage, pulse width, pulse repetition rate and others) can be configured via the front panel user interface (10” color touchscreen display) or can be controlled via the RS-232 interface. The default interface is the RS-232 (the RS-485 is available upon request).

The SDC-4U high-power diode drivers are designed for 19” rack mounting, featuring a 4U height and approximately 500 mm depth.
