Source Selection

Our product line of IR Sources includes Pulsable and Steady State (Standard and Specialty) emitters

PULSABLE SOURCES SUMMARY

• Minimal Resistance Drift
• Optical Output Efficiency
• High modulation depth / high pulse rate
• High efficiency - low power consumption
• Long life and cost effective
• Customized packaging / optic solution (cap / reflector / window)
