Features of the LDU-01D
- Fiber-based optogenetics utilizing high-performance laser technology
- Seamless system integration facilitated by comprehensive control mechanisms
- Compatibility with standard optical fibers – LDU available with SMA and FC/PC connectors
The LDU-01D represents a fiber-based illumination source designed for optogenetic applications. This device integrates a solid-state laser with npi's proprietary electronic systems, enabling precise control through TTL pulse signals, with intensity regulation accomplished via potentiometer adjustment. Furthermore, the system supports modulation of laser output power through an analog input signal as an alternative control method.
