Figure 1 shows the front panel of the PLD driver and the

locations of the configuration switches, Output and Current

Limit adjust trimpots, status LEDs, and pins.

Figure 2 shows a typical wiring diagram for the PLD driver

and external electronics to operate a Type A or B laser.

Figure 3 illustrates the three laser types that the PLD can

drive. For detailed instructions on using the different laser

types refer to the

Operating Instructions.

Use caution when the PLD is combined with a

PTC temperature controller: if the TEC or

thermistor is connected to the laser diode, two

power supplies are required and must float

independently of each other.
