Using your design’s input voltage, load size, ambient temperature, etc., the calculator will help you design a thermally robust and reliable system. These tools will allow you to draw the SOA curve for a Wavelength Electronics product and, optionally, to also draw a load line for your specific application to easily design your application to fall within the safe operating area. For a product that combines both laser diode driver and temperature controller, use both.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3193″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” title=”Circuit Calculators”][vc_column_text]The\u00a0WTC Series Circuit Calculator<\/a>\u00a0automatically calculates the gain resistor values based on your thermoelectric or resistive heater currents, the PI loop configuration based on your load type, and sensor gain and bias current to optimize your sensor’s responsivity.
