• Falltime – 2 ns typical

Redesigned Variable Pulse Width Laser Diode Controller

AMI’s Model 8800 series of flashlamp and laser diode controllers has been a fixture in laser laboratories around the world for more than 35 years.  They were preceded for a decade by the rotary switch and dial controlled Models 883 and 884.

For over 45 years laser designers, researchers and OEM manufacturers have relied on AMI’s expertise in PFN design to achieve the laser output needed for their applications.

The new Model 8808D design will offer more programming options and greater flexibility for diode pumped laser design, development and operation in the field.  The new design will feature a touch screen front panel interface as well as a user friendly GUI for external control.
