Butterfly Laser Mounting Module has dual-station design.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 07:49:09 -0500

Integrated cooling module, DBH-022, facilitates installation/removal of 14-pin butterfly laser packages for quick power on inspection, repair, burn-in, or integration into end products. Solution combines OEM fan mounted heatsink HS-022 with two 14-pin butterfly mounting boards model BA-01. Thermal resistance of 0.22°C/W translates to less than 15°C temperature rise over ambient when loaded with two pump lasers, which can be mounted or removed independently.
