This technical note derives the theoretical relationship between the hot-side temperature (Th) and the maximum achievable temperature difference (DTmax) of thermoelectric cooler modules from first principles. It explains why higher Th produces a larger DTmax, provides the closed-form equation DTmax = Th + 1/Z - sqrt(2Th/Z + 1/Z^2), and includes numerical predictions for Bi2Te3 from -20 C to 120 C....(more)
Driving Ionizing Loads with High Voltage Power Supplies Using a Series Resistor to Limit Peak Current During Arc and Spark Events 1. Introduction High voltage power supplies (HVPS) are used extensively in applications where air ionization is intentional including electrostatic precipitators, corona discharge devices, air ionizers, ozone generators, and plasma systems. In all of these, the load can periodically present a near-short-circuit to the power supply when the surrounding air breaks down...(more)
1550 nm Semiconductor Optical Amplifier for Optical Communication, Fiber Sensing, LiDAR, and Test Systems Part Number: ASOA1550N15D25GBT | March 2026 1. Introduction Semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) are becoming an increasingly important building block in modern photonic systems. As optical designs push for higher performance, tighter integration, and smaller footprints, the SOA's combination of compact packaging, broad gain bandwidth, and direct electrical controllability positions it as...(more)
In modern photonics and optoelectronic systems, laser performance depends not only on the laser diode itself, but also on the quality of the driver behind it.
