Product Overview:

The 1943RAM laser diode is a new generation of ultra-low power consumption 1480nm (1420 ~ 1500) fiber coupled pump modules. They are designed for Raman amplification applications. They are powered by an in-house chip technology leading to outstanding level of performance, power consumption and reliability. The low profile 14-pin butterfly modules are available with operating powers of 360 & 400mW over a wavelength range from 1420nm to 1500nm and an extended case temperature range from -5 to 70°C. They incorporate a thermoelectric cooler (TEC), a precision NTC. The wavelength is “locked” utilizing a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) located in a single mode Polarization maintaining Fiber (PMF). The module meets TelcordiaTM GR-468-Core requirements for hermetically sealed laser diodes.


Important Notes on Operating Laser Diodes:
Electrical Operation: Operating a laser diode above the maximum ratings shown on the data sheet even for very short periods of time can damage the laser diode or reduce its lifetime. They should be electrically biased with a "laser diode driver" class current supply with low electrical noise and protection against voltage and current surges. Laser diodes are very sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Proper ESD precautions must be taken.

Mounting and Temperature Control: In order to maintain the lifetime of a laser diode, proper heat management is essential. Due to the design of the laser diode, heat is typically dissipated only through the base plate of the diode‘s package. A proper heat conducting interconnection between the diodes base plate and the heat sink must be maintained. Some devices require the use of a thermo-electric temperature controller (TEC controller) to remove the heat from the laser and stabilize the temperature.
