Driver needs to be mounted on heatsink unless it is cooled by water. Driver's base plate temperature needs to be lower than 35 °C in all regimes of operation.
Power consumption for 6 pF load. Specifications are given for Pockels cell with capacity <6 pF. Voltage or repetition rate derating is necessary if capacitance of your Pockels cell is higher. Contact vendor for details.
DPBx series drivers are designed for wide range of applications and operating modes. Standard range of possible pulse durations is from 100 ns to 5 µs. It can be extended to infinity using pulse regeneration technique.
DPBx series units are available in two versions: „open frame “, which is ideal for OEM manufacturers incorporating drivers in their own systems and encased in aluminum housings for researchers. Encasing of Pockels cell driver in aluminum housing solves two problems: shields both humans and electronics from high voltage impact from operating Pockels cell driver, and protects driver itself from potentially harmful external contact – ensuring safe operation and driver longevity. The housed option is especially handy for researchers and custom product manufacturers who use these drivers during their own systems build-up.
