The new iC-HN device family from iC-Haus is suitable for extremely fast control of laser diodes with short pulses of down to only two nanoseconds
For the fast and safe position acquisition with sine/cosine encoders and linear systems iC-MR provides the complete position sensor and encoder interface in a system-on-chip solution
In laser sensor and measurement applications the challenges of the design of fast driver circuits is a very demanding task. This white paper describes the design of fast driver circuits, PCB layouts and optical measurement considerations, as well as a solution to achieve an ideal design for pulses as short as 2.5ns.
iC-Haus has introduced its new iC212 optical receiver for measurements of fast laser diode pulses. The device operates across a wide range of input frequencies (up to 1.4GHz) and wavelengths
iC-Haus has released its iC-GF monolithic interface, with two independent switching channels that enables digital sensors to drive peripheral elements, such as programmable logic controllers (PLC) and relays, for example.
