Item to Inspect: 87960-1 - ThorLabs MDT690 3-Axis Piezo Controller

More Information

ThorLabs MDT690 3-Axis Piezo Controller Overview

Features:

  • Input Voltage: 115/230 VAC
  • Output Voltage: 0-150 VDC
  • Output Current: 60 mA/Channel
  • (3) Independent Channels
  • LCD Digital Readout on Each Channel
  • Internal/External Voltage Control
The ThorLabs MDT690 3-Axis Piezo Controller is an ideal (3) channel controller for flexure stages fitted with either MDE 218 or MDE 227 piezo adjusters. It combines a precision output voltage for maximum piezo resolution with a high current capability to allow external modulation of the piezo.

The piezo adjusters are connected to 3 x BNC outputs on the rear panel of the controller and the voltage applied to each channel independently using the knobs on the front panel. Each channel has its own LCD display which shows the applied voltage.

External signals in the range 0-10V can be applied to the front panel BNC connectors allowing remote control of the unit from a voltage source or D/A converter.

The ThorLabs MDT690 3-Axis Piezo Controller may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

ThorLabs MDT690 3-Axis Piezo Controller Description

Functions

Three-channel high-voltage piezoelectric actuator controller providing independent closed-loop or open-loop control for nanometer-precision positioning applications. Generates 0-150V output per channel with sub-millivolt resolution, supporting capacitive loads up to 2µF. Interfaces via analog BNC inputs (0-10V), manual front-panel controls, and optional computer control through RS-232/USB communication. Integrated noise filtering, adjustable PID parameters, and position feedback monitoring enable stable operation of piezo-driven stages, mirrors, and positioners. Commonly used in optical alignment, microscopy, interferometry, and precision manufacturing requiring multi-axis nanoscale motion control.
