National Semiconductor a présenté aujourd'hui le CAN (convertisseur analogique-numérique) 12 bits le plus rapide du marché. À 3.6 Géch/s (Giga-échantillons par seconde), l'ADC12D1800 est 3.6 fois plus rapide que tout autre circuit 12 bits disponible sur le marché. Les performances dynamiques exceptionnelles de ce CAN, avec un niveau de bruit plancher de -147 dBm/Hz, un NPR (Noise Power Ratio, ou rapport de puissance de bruit) de 52 dB, et...

National Instruments today announced LabVIEW Robotics 2009, a new version of its graphical system design software that provides a standard development platform for designing robotic and autonomous control systems. NI LabVIEW Robotics 2009 delivers an extensive robotics library with connectivity to standard robotic sensors and actuators, foundational algorithms for intelligent operations and perception and motion functions for robots and autonomou...

SemiNex makes laser diodes in the 1300nm to 1700nm wavelength range with the chips packaged in bare bars, chip-on-submount, single-emitter and multi-chip fibre-coupled modules and hermetically sealed TO-can.

The SQLightSensor is an ultra low noise near infrared Single Photon Detector based on a Geiger-mode InGaAs avalanche photodiode and an internal thermoelectrically cooler. The SQLightSensor includes a Geiger-mode InGaAs avalanche photodiode (APD) and a thermoelectrically cooler (TEC) that ensures high detection efficiency up to 25%, low dark count (5.10-6 per ns gate), high speed trigger up to 10 MHz, and low jitter. The gate width and the delay a...

Intense Ltd., today announced at Photonics West the release of Hermes DDL, a turnkey Direct Diode Laser System. Powered by Intense's patented QWI enabled high temperature QCW stack technology, Hermes DDL is the company's first turnkey industrial laser system. It includes a compact, turnkey laser that comes fully integrated with drive electronics and optics capable of delivering up to 1.5kW of power at various programmable pulse lengths and duty c...

Hamamatsu Photonics introduced a hybrid photodetector module, the H10777. The hybrid photodetector (HPD) dispenses with the traditional metal dynodes found within a conventional photomultiplier tube (PMT) and instead photoelectrons are accelerated in a high electric field onto a silicon avalanche diode target, which is connected to form the cathode/output of the device.

AMI’s Model 762 OEM programmable seed laser diode drivers (pump laser diode drivers) are ideal for driving 14-pin butterfly packaged laser diode modules for use in CW or pulsed fiber MOPA systems for materials processing, LIDAR systems for remote sensing, laser communication applications and rangefinding.

National Instruments UK & Ireland is producing a series of Robotics Webcasts aimed at engineers seeking solutions for innovation and design with robotics. Taking place between 24th and 28th May, the series will give a fascinating insight into the next generation of robots and embedded technologies.

The BoostiK systems are narrow linewidth fiber laser turn-key benchtop systems based on a truly single mode, single frequency DFB (Distributed-Feedback) Fiber Laser with extremely high frequency stability and low phase and intensity noise.

Diode lasers emitting from the visible red to 2.2 microns and beyond have broad utility in the defense space. Pumping applications range from fiber and solid state directed energy laser weapons including DPALs, eye safe lasers to include LIDAR, to infrared counter measures. Direct diode uses include illuminators from the near IR to the eye safe regime as well as countermeasures.
