The MLC-05A-xR1 series is a versatile and compact controller for a few specific non triggered Microchip laser heads. Triggered lasers require the MLC-03A-xP1 or MLC-03A-xP2 controller. Stand alone laser users will use the desktop version which runs from 100 to 240 V AC, it is required to meet full CDRH certification.
OEM customers can use the 12 V DC-powered module version or the board version. RS232 and visual status LEDs provide information about laser operation. This controller is swappable with any compatible Microchip laser head and will automatically acquire the operating parameters of the laser. It provides a full protection against temperature overruns of the laser head.
