-
We offers source to fiber couplers with built in attenuators or shutters.
-
These couplers provide a precise method to control the intensity of light through a fiber.They are available in both receptacle style and pigtail style.
-
Source couplers are available with both manual and electrically controlled attenuators.
-
In the manual version, the beam from the laser is partially blocked by a precision blocking screw.
-
Adjusting the screw controls how much light reaches the fiber.
-
In the electrically controlled version, a stepper motor controls the amountof attenuation.
-
It includes a homing sensor to calibrate the attenuator against.
-
The stepper motor is available with several options for control.
-
The basic model provides direct access to the motor as well as logiclevel output for the HOME sensor.
-
The -DR option adds a high speed driver circuit that accepts four logic level signals to control the motor.
