More Information

ThorLabs MCLS1 Multi-Channel Fiber-Coupled Laser Source w/ (4) MCLS1-635 Overview

Features:

  • Four Independently Controlled Laser Diodes
  • Intuitive LCD Interface
  • USB Connection Allows Remote Adjustment of Power, Temperature, and Enabling
  • Meets 3B Laser Class Requirements for Safety
  • Fabry-Perot or DFB Laser Modules
The Thorlabs MCLS Series Multi-Channel Fiber-Coupled Laser Source consists of four independently controlled laser diodes, which can be chosen from the chart on the facing page. The laser source is configured to accept a wide range of fiber-pigtailed laser diodes. There are 24 different power/wavelength combinations currently available.

Each laser diode is operated from an independent, high-precision, low-noise, constant-current source and temperature control unit. An intuitive LCD interface allows the user to view and set the laser current and temperature control independently for each laser. The display indicates the channel number selected, the output wavelength of the source, the operating power calculated from the laser diode monitor diode, and the actual temperature to which the laser is set.

This device includes a microcontroller to fully control the laser’s optical power, its temperature, and to monitor the system for fault conditions. The laser source includes a USB connection that allows remote adjustment of power, temperature, and enabling. On the rear panel, analog inputs are available to modulate the lasers with an external signal. To prevent damage, the microcontroller will disable the output if the analog input plus the internal setpoint exceeds the laser limits.

The ThorLabs MCLS1 Multi-Channel Fiber-Coupled Laser Source w/ (4) MCLS1-635 may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
