Description
The ILX Lightwave LDC-3722B Laser Diode Controller, part of the LDC-3722/3724 series, delivers high stability precision control for laser diodes, specifically low and medium power semiconductor lasers. This controller integrates LC/TEC drive circuits and features GPIB and digital display. Providing robust laser diode protection with features like slow start current ramp, adjustable current and voltage limits, and surge protection, this unit ensures reliable temperature and current control. With a dual range current source, independent power supplies for the laser and TEC loop, and a 32 Watt hybrid PI control loop, the LDC-3722B is known for its ultra-stable operation. Despite some cosmetic wear, the unit is used but functional, as detailed photos show. Manufactured in the USA by ILX Lightwave, it stands as a staple in the photonic industry, recognized for stability, precision, and low noise performance.
