Up for sale is a Newport Model 9016 Modular Controller with the following:

• Software Version: 2.281
• 16 x 8610.16C: Combo LDD/TEC Modules
  • LDD Output Current Range: 0-1000 mA
  • Typical TEC Output Power: 8 W

The Newport Model 9016 Modular Controller expands on Newport’s modular laser diode controller concept to meet the higher channel densities found in Dense WDM (DWDM) applications and 2-D VCSEL arrays where all the lasers have similar electrical configurations.

• The 16 bays accept Combo Laser Diode Driver (LDD)/ Temperature Controller (TEC) modules.
• The Combo LDD/TEC modules are designed for use in communication applications and have an internal function generator for testing systems.
• The user only needs to program the frequency, I_max, and I_min to modulate the laser diode output. Triangle, sine or square (50% duty cycle) waveforms are available from 200 Hz–300 kHz.
• This range of  frequencies meets today’s low frequency single-tone and high data rate test requirements for datacom and telecom.
• The mainframe automatically detects which module is installed in each bay and displays the system configuration on a large LCD screen. A sophisticated processor provides enhanced system control and data collection capabilities.
• GPIB/IEEE-488 and RS-232 interfaces are included with the Model 8016 for complete remote control and data collection. LabVIEW drivers are supplied with each 8016 mainframe.
• Automated testing and device evaluation are easily implemented using Newport’s extensive library of LabVIEW commands.
