Hi there, I've got a spectra physics 0129-2653 Rev. D laser diode a few days ago but I don't have any specs about the operating current / threshold current; I only know the wavelength is 808nm and Pout is about 30 watts. Does any one have more detailed information on this diode?
Typically, a 30 W diode will have a threshold of 8-12 amps with
30 W at 35-50 A depending on slope efficiency. The only way to know exactly without measuring it (assuming the diode is good) would be to get the original test sheet from Spectra-Physics.
