LDP-CW 20-50 Fully Digital CW-Driver for High Power Laser Diodes

29 Jun 2011

 Output current: 0 ... 20A
 Compliance voltage: 0 ... 50V
 Output power: 1kW
 Coverage of cw range
 Analogue modulation
 Half brick size (35cm²)
 Several protective features
 High efficiency

The LDP-CW 20-50 OEM is a very affordable, compact and efficient current supply for an output power up to 1kW. The capability ranges from continuous output current to analogue modulated waveforms like sinusoidal, rectangular or triangular. The modulation is limited usually by the load inductance. Intended field of application are laser soldering and welding as well as generic surface treatment and show lasers. The innovative current regulation concept of the LDP-CW 20-50 produces, compared to the commonly used linear regulation concept, considerably less losses. Hence only one supply voltage is needed for the control logic and the power stage. The current consumption drawn from the power supply only needs to cover the average laser power and is typically much less than 20A.

Designed to shield your laser diode from damage, the LDP-CW 20-50 features a number of powerful protective safeguards:

Innovative current regulation concept actively prevents laser diode from overshoots and over-current

Integrated Soft Start

Over-temperature shutdown

Enable/Disable input

Driver status output

Protection of the laser diode against reverse currents
