The 485-08-05 mirrors much of the functionality of our 4304 LaserSource, with 8 Amps and 5 Voltages of output capability. With a lower cost and smaller footprint, the LaserPak fits better into embedded applications and other low cost applications.

Analog or Computer -- Your Choice

The 485 Series LaserPaks provide both a robust analog interface as well as computer control (USB or RS232) for precise remote operation (you can even use both interface simultaneously). The analog interface provies on/off control, status, and analog monitor of current and voltage, while the computer interface provies complete control over all operating parameters.

Analog Modulation
The 485-08-05’s analog interface supports modulation rates up to 45kHz.

At-a-Glance
  • 8A range
  • 5V compliance
  • 0.5mA resolution
  • <200uA noise
  • USB and RS-232 interfaces

 

 

 

 

Develop with a LaserSource,
Deploy with a LaserPak

The LaserPak is command-set compatible with the LaserSource an also features the identical laser interface. This means you can start your development with the LaserSource, a robust benchtop instrument with a full user interface and display, then move to the lower cost LaserPak as you roll out the application to production or your end-users.

Standard Computer Interfaces
The LaserPak includes both USB and RS232 computer interfaces, allowing for quick and easy connection to a PC for remote operation. In addition, the LaserPak’s command set is compatible with ILX and Newport controllers, as well as our LaserSource controllers, allowing you to leverage any existing software you may have already developed.
