A-CUBE-Series: Silicon or InGaAs Avalanche Photodiode (APD) Modules

The A-CUBE-Series APD Modules are compact Silicon (400 nm - 1000 nm) or InGaAs (900 nm - 1700 nm) avalanche photodiode modules with high responsivity (up to 500 MV/W for Si, 94 MV/W for InGaAs) and low NEP (as low as 6 fW/rt(Hz) for Si, 32 fW/rt(Hz) for InGaAs). They offer bandwidths up to 240 MHz, peak sensitivities at 905 nm (Si) and 1550 nm (InGaAs), and active area options from 200 µm to 3 mm. Features include a matched preamplifier, integrated high-voltage supply, temperature compensation, RS-232 control, and optional fiber coupling. Powered by 12 V DC in a 40.6 mm x 40.6 mm x 52.6 mm housing, they suit applications like APD evaluation, LiDAR, range finding, optical communications, spectroscopy, fluorescence, and medical systems.

LC-LMD-515-07-01-TM-01: Green Dot Laser

The LC-LMD-515-07-01-TM-01 is a compact green dot laser module operating at 520 nm with an output power of 0.5 mW - 0.9 mW, 2 mrad beam divergence, and a beam spot size of up to 20 mm at 10 m. It supports PWM control from 100 kHz to 2000 kHz, features surge current protection, and integrates an auto power control (APC) IC for stable performance. Powered by 6 V DC and consuming less than 100 mA, the module measures just Ø3.31 mm x 12.8 mm, making it ideal for precision alignment, positioning, instrumentation, and other space-constrained photonics applications.
