Will these drivers be making an appearance on eBay, or just available here?

They are also available on ebay.com

Hi, alex how many m140's could I run in series from this driver? Im about to start a 8 x build
thanks

Hi James!

You can run two diodes in series. The max. input voltage is 12V.
or you can drive three diodes at lower power, if it makes any sense. Maybe in case that you dont want to drive them to their limits.

Looks nice, how linear is the analog modulation? Anyway to communicate with the board to get status, temp.. via SPI/I2C/Serial or other?

Hi Alex,
The driver / TEC controller looks good. Does a manufacturing company produce these or is it a single individual? Did electrical/electronic engineers design this or a hobbiest? (Not that there is anything really wrong with that) . Is there a burn-in or run-in time/ facility? I am just being curious about all of the drivers that we have been seeing (or lack thereof) lately..
Thanks.

Hi Steve,

the driver is produced by a manufacturing factory. The driver has been designed neither by an engineer nor by a hobbyist but by somebody who designs drivers for a long time. The design and the finished driver have been checked by an electronic engineers (a friend of mine) some weeks ago.
The next step is to make a dual LD driver based on the same design.

Thanks for answering my questions Alex. They look very nice. Do you make a dual or triple laser diode driver without the TEC driver?

[lasertack]

Sure, we have dual and quad drivers in stock. Same driver but without a tec controller. The price for the 2ch driver is 55€ and 70€ for the 4ch driver. Shoot me a PM if you want to place an order.
