Necsel Neon

RGB Laser Illuminator Specifications

Date: Version: December 10, 2011 3.1

1 Introduction
These specifications are for the Necsel Neon prototype laser illumination system containing red, green and blue colors which can be independently modulated. The light is delivered via a standard SMA-905 optical fiber output with a 1.0 mm aperture.

AC Power Source Requirements

Over 2 hours, after warm-up and 3C, above 2W output power for each operating color IR leakage at max power for all colors 3 Power is measured coming out from the SMA connector of the box. Power will be less after transport fiber is connected depending on AR-coating, fiber diameter, fiber length, and other factors. 4 ON is 90% of Item 1 Pop 5 Power consumption measured at operating power of Item 1 at 25 C. Consumption will be much lower if lasers are run at lower power levels, and also will be affected by the environment temperature as TECs are used to heat/cool the lasers. 6 Maximum operating power will be lower than the indicated maximum when the white light homogenizing option is installed (i.e., the fiber output is white light instead of the individual RGB combination)

3 Communications Interface
DMX 3-channel interface via 5-pin XLR connector USB Simple GUI with basic power commands for smooth RGB control Key-enabled turn-on for safety Extensive user command set provided upon purchase of Necsel Neon system

4.2 Mechanical Interfaces

4.2.1 Fiber Connection Necsel recommends at least a 1.0 mm diameter fiber at the output of the box in order to capture the maximum amount of exiting light. The fiber tips should also be anti-reflection (AR) coated for maximum efficiency. 4.2.2 Mechanical Dimensions All dimensions below are in inches.
