DC current source SpikeSafe™

SpikeSafe™ Performance Series Precision Pulsed Current Sources also known as pulsers, supply precise static and dynamic current output modes including DC and continuous and single pulse. Fast pulse widths reduce junction temperatures for VCSEL, laser diode, and other semiconductor devices. With sustained output power and no duty cycle limitations, Performance Series Current Sources support a broad range of applications. Precision Pulsed SMU Taking the Performance Series Current Source Series to the next level, Vektrex integrated a low noise digitizer for accurate measurement.

Precision Timing These high-performance current sources feature precise hardware-based triggering that reduces timing uncertainty improving measurement repeatability to a remarkable 0.05%. Fast current rise times and on-the-fly pulse width correction allow the source to produce near-perfect square current pulses that are ideal for LM-85’s high-accuracy Continuous Pulse mode measurements. Performance Series Current Sources are available in single and multichannel models supporting compliance voltages to 400V and source currents to 60A. Continuous Power Conversion SpikeSafe Current Sources utilize highly efficient Continuous Power Conversion (CPC). CPC allows SpikeSafe current sources to provide sustained DC, single pulse or continuous pulse current without the duty cycle or pulse width limitations found in other current sources. Sustained power is the foundation for improved LED light measurements.
