Superscripts: 1Independently adjustable peak and baseline levels of light. 2 Stabilized power levels with optical feedback-typical tempco is 0.05%/°C. 3Also sub nS impulse. 4The 201E can be externally driven to 500 MHz. Some laser diodes can follow the 500 MHz drive signal. 5Four fixed widths, 10, 15, 20 and 25 nS are standard. Factory can provide other widths.
Notes: a - These laser diodes can be modulated around a bias level. Modulating bandwidths up to 500 MHz are standard. b - ST connector, Single mode fiber 8/125 µ .21 NA. c - SMA 906 connector Multimode fiber, 100/140 µ 0.28 NA. d - Completely programmable via GPIB and RS232. e - ST connector, Multimode fiber 50/125 µ 0.21 NA. f - These are laser diodes, packaged and terminated to operate with our 6040/201E electrical drivers. They can be pigtailed, collimated or be housed in a connector. The power out varies with the output configuration. g - Fiber optic connector is SMA 906. The fiber is 100/120 µ fiber [a NA of 0.22 NA.] The source is a LED. h - Fiber optic connector is SMA 905. Fiber connecting light source is a 750 µ OD fiber bundle, each fiber with a 46 µ OD [with a NA of 0.55 NA.] Source is a LED.

Some important Light Pulse Generator Characteristics

Stable light source - Our light pulse generators have excellent short and long-term stability, reportedly making them the leading pulsed light standard for calibrating detectors and photomultiplier tubes. LPGs test the response of detector elements and optical recievers.

Width and rate adjustibility - All of these pulse generators offer a wide range of internal pulse width and rate control. In addition, they can be externally triggered and driven. The external drive mode allows the output to follow a user-controlled wavetrain.

pS jitter, nS delay resolution - The 6040-based light pulse generators provide 25 pS jitter with 1 nS delay resolution, making the generators useful calibrators for laser rangefinders.

Electrical Drivers - The 6040 mainframe/module system allows electrical driver modules to be used in place of optical modules. Electrical drive capabilities range from 150 pS risetime, 100 mA pulse to 10 nS risetime, 18 A pulses.
