ColorDRIVE one

ColorDRIVE one is a high performance laser diode driver with integrated TEC driver.

ColorDRIVE is designed to be efficient and versatile. It supports a high operation voltage and offers stable, and fast regulation in a small, easy to integrate form factor.

A temperature good output (power reduction) enables an easy integration of the driver in any system. It gives you the possibility to check if the TEC driver has reached the desired temperature e.g., if everything is working as it should.

The driver also features a NTC sensor error detection.

The drivers are fully compatible with our ColorBUS system. ColorBUS makes it possible to connect everything in a tidy way and furthermore uses the power reduction (PR) output (temp ok) to command a reduced drive current from our ColorDRIVEs to protect the laser diodes if a TEC should fail.

Comes with:

- 2x M3x10mm (2.0 hex drive) screws with metal-washers

- 1x 15cm flat ribbon cable with connector on one side (output to laser)

- 1x 15cm flat ribbon cable with connector on one side (modulation input, ColorBUS)

- 1x 30cm pre-crimped power supply cable

- thermal grease
