Amplifiers and power supplies

Opto Diode Corporation has released a 5mm² Photodiode-Preamplifier ODA-5WB-100K, which is the first in a series of three blue/green-enhanced devices.

Team Wavelength has released an upgraded version of its LDTC 2/2 Laser Diode Driver and Temperature Controller.

Power Partners has introduced the PPR250 Series of power supplies, which deliver 250W of power, with 600W of peak power, in a compact 5" x 3.2" x 1.5" package.

Pro-Lite Technology has released the LabMax from Coherent’s LMC division, a high-performance laser power and energy meter compatible with all Coherent thermal, photodiode and pyroelectric sensor heads.

Gooch & Housego has released an ultra small, compact, Q switch driver capable of delivering up to 24 watts at 24, 27.12, or 40.68 mhz for use with its small conductively cooled Q switches.

Opto Diode has released a photodiode preamplifier combination device that features higher gain in lower light environments, called the NIR/Red Enhanced 6mm² ODA-6W-500M Photodetector-Preamplifier.

Opto Diode has released the NIR/Red Enhanced ODA-6W-100M Photodetector-Preamplifier. The device features lower noise than discrete detector preamp circuits due to Opto Diode’s shielded amplifier electronics

The Thor Series is the newest addition to Quantronix's ultra-fast amplifier family and provides a low repetition rate, high energy solution for customers who want a compact amplifier system to achieve up to a terawatt level of peak power.

High Q Laser has launched the ultra compact Femtoregen UC – an all-in-one femtosecond regenerative amplifier - delivering 2W power at 200kHz repetition rate with 350fs pulse duration on a footprint of 34 x 78cm.

Femto Messtechnik has developed a variable gain transimpedance amplifier DHPCA-100 for amplifying the photo current of fast photodiodes. It offers a maximum bandwidth of 200MHz equivalent to a signal rise time of 1.8ns.
