LASER CONTROLLER FOR OPTICAL AMPLIFIERS
Description
This laser controller is designed for driving the pump laser in optical amplifiers, such as Raman amplifier
and EDFA, with high stability and reliability. It drives the laser in four modes: constant current, constant
laser power, constant output power, and constant gain. It also provides these protection functions: over
current, over laser power, over output power, and over gain.
