650nm micro laser diode collimators
The 650nm micro laser diode collimator measures a tiny 4.5mm in diameter with a length of only 8mm. It has been designed specifically for use in applications requiring high laser beam alignment accuracy where size is a critical factor.
It has a lasing wavelength of 650nm, elliptical output beam of 8.0 x 6.5mm at 5 metres, high bore sighting accuracy of <0.2º, beam divergence of 0.5mrad max, collimated output power of 3mW
and pointing stability of <0.2mrad/ºC.
Operating current is 25mA, operating voltage is 2.2V and operating temperature range is from -10ºC to +70ºC.
The micro laser diode collimator has been designed as a complete low cost, high volume system for OEM use. They consist of a brass housing, 3.3mm diameter laser diode and high quality glass collimating lens in a lightweight 4.5mm cylindrical package.
Electrical connections are made via the laser diode pins. The lens may be factory-set to produce either a collimated beam or focused spot.
Direct access to the laser diode and photodiode connections
provide maximum flexibility in the configuration of the electrical interface. Drive electronics can be supplied if required.
Other wavelengths and output powers are available on request.
