Profile Diode Controllers

Its a fact of life, every time you switch a laser diode on or off or vary the drive current through it, you reduce it's life.

However, do you realise that whenever you switch your computer, desk lamp, or other electrical equipment on or off, you could also damage your laser diode?

It's all down to the electrical transients (spikes) that pass through any electrical system when part of the system experiences a sudden change. Any laser diode attached to that system will experience those spikes, often with catastrophic results. That's why Profile dedicate so much time and effort to the design of laser controllers that act to eliminate the voltage spikes, transients and noise that other companies leave to harm your laser.
