Laser Head 1.0 - 74AC86-based solar head; lights a high-intensity LED when locked on a bright light.
Laser high-voltage power supply - The traditional approach is to use a small neon-tube transformer with a variable autotransfomer (a Variac) used to control the AC input voltage to the transformer. While larger transformers may be rated at 15kV at up to 60mA this is overkill for most applications (not to mention overkill in the lethal sense60mA will ensure almost certain death !) . Smaller transformers may be found which output 8kV at 5mA and are better suited to capacitor charging applications. Similar transformers may be found in old photocopiers __ Designed by Professor Mark Csele's Homebuilt Lasers Page
LASER Power Supply - If you have ever worked with lasers, you know how fun and interesting it can be, you also know how expensive it can be. The high voltage power supplies for the laser tubes are often more expensive then the tubes themselves. This supply can be built with commmon parts, most of which you probably already have in your junk box. The secret is the transformer used. It is a common 9V 1A unit, connected backwards for step up __ Designed by Aaron Cake

Laser simulator helps avoid Destroyed diodes - 6-Jan-05 EDN-Design Ideas Laser diodes can destroy themselves in a few nanoseconds, so testing the response and stability of a feedback-stabilized laser-diode driver can be expensive. The simulator circuit in Figure 1 shows a typical laser-diode package, which contains not only the diode, which is driven by current I - L, but also a photodiode Design by Nick Cornford, Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, UK
Laser Target Finder Sensor - I originally built this sensor to be able to perform triangulation navigation. I needed a way to locate three targets from some distance, so a laser pointer seemed to be tailored for the job. To keep things simple, I wanted to have passive targets, and used catadioptric reflectors to send back laser beam to the sensor. Now I needed to be able to detect this reflected light. I first thought of integrated circuits used as infra-red remote control receivers, but these devices are sold as modules integrating the IR sensitive element and a filter eliminating visible light. I was out of luck: inexpensive laser pointers are red, a wavelength well out of the sensitivity range. I then found Plessey SL486 device, an old remote control receiver chip __ Designed by Philippe "Philo"Hurbain
Laser Torch-Based Voice Transmitter & Receiver - Using this circuit you can communicate with your neighbours wirelessly. Instead of RF signals, light from a laser torch is used as the carrier in the circuit. The laser torch can__ Electronics Projects for You
Laser transmitter/receiver - This set of two circuits from the basis for a very simple light wave transmitter. A LASER beam is modulated and then aimed at a receiver that demodulates the signal and then presents the information (voice, data, etc) . The whole thing is very easy to build and requires no specialized parts execpt for the LASER itself. LASERs are available from MWK Industries. __ Designed by Aaron Cake

Laser-diode control - 09/19/02 EDN-Design Ideas Laser diodes are sensitive to ESD, rapid turn-on currents, and overvoltage conditions. To address those problems, the simple laser-diode controller in Figure 1 has several functions. The first part of the circuit comprises an 8.2V Design by Michael Fisch, Agere Systems, Longmont, CO
Laser-Diode Driver Stabilizes Sensitivity Parameters - 11/05/98 EDN-Design Ideas - (File has many circuits, scroll to this one) The conventional advantages of lasers—coherence, monochromaticity, and extreme compactness—make laser diodes popular in most of their potential applications. Biomedical diagnostics and high-resolution-spectroscopy applications exploit laser diodes' wavelength tunability. These applications use the laser wavelength's sensitivity to drive current and operating temperature—0.025 nm/ and Design by Anil Kumar Maini and Nita Sen, Defence Science Centre, Delhi, India

Lazer Tag Equipment Modifications - I added a "fast-fire" circuit to get around the annoying delay that prevents you from firing again immediately. It used the target LED contact on the trigger switch to reset the pulse generator. That way, normally when you fire the sound goes on for its normal duration (we banned any mod that would turn off the sound or always __ Designed by John DuBois

Low noise PIN diode laser receiver - This article will describe a simple low noise PIN diode front end suitable for laser communications. Two schematics are presented, one for nighttime use and one for daylight use. Although it may be possible to add switching to the front end to allow one front end to work for both night and day I decided against this due to the extremely high impedance involved and degradation associated with loading on the PIN diode. __ Designed by JohnK3PGP |
