FlexMod Driver

Gotta turn that auto focus off man! I think may put that 405 I got and lava's first drive in the box with the scanners I bring you. See if you can get it to work.

Hi, thanks for the post. I knew the driver was good through simulations and oscilloscope/laser tests, but it's cool to see the tests others are able to come up with using their advanced scanner hardware and control software.

Hey drlava, might you have any spares of of this driver lying around?

i would eventualy like the v2 so i can replace the ones im using now..

[mophead]

Mee Too.

I could use 4-6 of the drivers when they are avilable again.

[drlava]

They are coming soon.. only a couple weeks now.

think i need 3

Hmm, I don't really recall exactly how much brighter it was over the PHR-803t diode, I just remember it being brighter. I bought the two from a guy on LPF, sadly the PHR-803t didn't last long, as I was trying to determine its wavelenght, it failed. I replaced the diode and backed the current down to something a little more reasonable so I wouldn't have to worry about a duty cycle. The guy was nice enough to offer a free repair, however I declined and repaired it myself since I figured it would be a nice learning experience.

405.0066555nm will have a response of 0.000640563 relative to 1 at 555nm
412.5153933nm will have a response of 0.001628479 relative to 1 at 555nm

Those are the closest data points I have. It is significantly brighter. 0.43558 lm/w for 405nm vs. 1.101365 lm/W for 412.5nm

How are you testing the wavelength? Do you have a spectrometer?
