Typical Pulse Output (160 Amps)
High power and high voltage
diode circuitry drive
Modulation input for drive current
Inputs for RTD temp sensors for diode
array temperature
Toggle capability between threshold
and lasing
Extensive driver & diode array protection:
Floating output
Spike/Transient protection
Open circuit/reversed leads shutdown
Fast reverse polarity output diodes
Hardware & software limits for maximum
PRF,pulsewidth & drive current
Custom capabilities:
IMC can provide custom capabilites,as
the software is easily modifiedin C language,
and a variety of operating conditions can
be accomodated by changingthe internal
programmable logic devices (PLDs)
Status outputs:
TTL Signals capable of driving
front panel LEDs/event
counters/etc,
Status information via serial
interface
Analog outputs for current
monitoring/ driving front
panels meters
Can be controlled from:
Passive front panel switches/pots
Discrete TTL input signals
Remotely via RS232/RS485,or
CAN serial interfaces
