These are the smallest laser modules available worldwide, and they are available in stock in several wavelengths. The complete modules are barely larger than the laser diode itself and have the advantage that the entire drive electronics is already integrated! This facilitates integration into the system: the products simply have to be connected.
Our Smallest Laser Module
The smallest laser module, a 650 nm dot laser available either in a plastic or a metal housing, has a diameter of 3.3 mm. In the plastic version, the maximum output power is less than 0.9 mW. In the metal housing, there is another version in which the output power is less than 3.0 mW.
For larger diameters between 6.2 mm and 10.5 mm, wavelengths other than 650 nm are also available. In addition to the very brightly perceived red at 635 nm, there are also versions available at 780 nm and 850 nm, the latter two of which are not visible to the human eye.
Would you like to focus the laser beam? We also offer a product for this purpose, even at an output power of 2.0-5.0 mW.
Our Smallest Line Laser
With a fan angle of more than 120°, LASER COMPONENTS offers the smallest line laser in its product range: The laser module, which emits at 635 nm (in the photograph, on the right), has a diameter of 11.5 mm and a length of 30 mm.
Lifetime
We are often asked about the lifetime of the modules. On average, the lifetime is more than 10,000 hours; however, the 635 nm modules have a lifetime that is less than the other modules – approximately 5,000 hours. This data is based on operation at a voltage between 2.5 and 3.3 VDC.
