High-precision at low-cost
Features: The 1550UA Series is a new addition to the existing line of high-quality and affordable high-volume Pulsed Laser Diodes (PLDs). This is in addition to the 905UA Series but now at a higher wavelength. The 1550UA Series offers a hermetically sealed metal housing featuring optimal thermal stability, excellent overdrive capabilities, and precise chip alignment. System integrators can take advantage of high-volume production without reducing the reliability of a system.
Applications: Mainly being used in Time-of-Flight (ToF), and Laser Range Finding (LRF) systems, the 1550 nm solution will improve the transmission through rain, fog, snow, and other harsh weather for Defense & Aerospace, and automotive LiDAR applications. Additionally, the added benefit of using the higher wavelength of 1550 nm improves eye safety compared to 905 nm lasers.
For customers considering upgrading from commercial-grade PLDs to higher-resolution, the 1550UA Series is a cost-effective solution. It is capable of operating at –45 to 85°C, to withstand the difficult conditions of various environments. Available in a TO-56 package with multiple sources sizes, the 1550UA Series can also be customized to meet the needs of each area of use.
