ILX Lightwave, a Newport Corporation brand, has introduced the LRS-9580 calibration system, a transportable unit capable of calibrating fixtures, shelves, and measurement electronics for the LRS-9550 high-power test laser diode test system for single emitters.
The calibration system will enable LRS-9550 customers to calibrate their systems easily on-site, improving up-time and increasing productivity. The LRS-9580 provides the ability to calibrate and or verify the following aspects of the LRS-9550: fixture temperature sensor measurement accuracy, laser diode voltage measurement accuracy, fixture trace resistance, optical power measurement accuracy (requires characterised laser source – not included), current set point accuracy, control measurement modules, temperature measurement accuracy, and self calibration of internal current sense resistors.
