  • All-analogue signal processing with propagation delay 40ns
  • Parallel FAST and SLOW control loops
    • Feedback to both current and piezo
    • Flexible control of loop parameters
  • High-bandwidth external modulation
  • Internal ramp generator
  • Two low-noise photodiode power supplies
  • TTL control

Description

The FSC is an ultra-fast PID servo controller for high-bandwidth laser locking, with separate control loops for fast (current) and slow (piezo) feedback for complete control of laser frequency. The control loop can be optimally tuned for cavity locking, linewidth narrowing or beatnote offset locking applications.

Compatible with all laser heads that include direct injection modulation (such as the CEL or CEF) and drivers that include external piezo control (such as the DLC).

A low-noise 30MHz photodetector is also available, which can be powered directly from the FSC.
