  Current Drivers & Temperature Controllers  

SLD modules are extremely sensitive to surges and spikes of drive current (or voltage). Any mistake in the design of a driving circuit may result in SLD module damage and failure. In most cases, modules cannot be repaired from this kind of damage. To provide an adequate level of SLD protection, it is imperative to have a properly designed current and temperature controller. Superlum offers drivers that allow to operate all types of cooled Superlum's SLD modules at a high level of stability and protection. All current Superlum controllers are designed for built-n SLD modules for a complete light source solution.
Our drivers vary by dimensions (footprint) and communication interface (digital and analog).

  Current Drivers & Temperature Controllers (PILOTs)  

Compact mounts/heads are available for all types of modules (DIL, BUT and TOW). Fiber coupled modules can be easily replaced in the mount by the customer—no soldering required. Free-space SLD modules assembled in TOW 1 and TOW 2 packages and installed in TOW mounts cannot be replaced by the customer.

  SLD and Driver Assemblies (Old Models)  

If you are looking for both an SLD module and an appropriate driver for it, consider an all-in-one light source, in which the SLD and driver are integrated together. Such a light source is easy to set up and won't take up very much space.


    BLMS mini
  BLMS mini SLD light source
 


BLMS mini is an SLD light source which combines a fiber pigtailed SLD module, a high precision current and temperature controller, and an optional optical isolator in one compact and easy-to-use device. Each product is custom made with the SLD module of your choice. See the BLMS mini product page for details.

 
    

    OEM Drivers
  PILOT4-PCB OEM SLD CONTROLLER
 

based on the proven circuit design of Superlum's PILOT4-AC benchtop driver was developed specifically to be incorporated into OEM systems. A board-level version provides greater flexibility for integration into a system design and allows our customers to develop efficient and cost-effective solutions.
