AeroDIODE pulse picker uses an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) and a special synchronization electronics to select the output pulse from an optical pulse train whatever its repetition rate up to 200 MHz. The input frequency is detected by an internal photodiode or by using the customer input trigger. 3 Pulse Picker synchronization modes allow to get the output pulses at the desired frequency with a very low insertion loss and an excellent rejection ratio of the input frequency.

Pulse picker turn-key solution :
This laser Pulse Picker turnkey solution is designed and optimized to modulate the intensity of light down to the nanosecond timing range in order to reject pulses with a high extinction ratio and keeping other pulses with a very low insertion loss. It is an ideal solution for laser pulse picking of mode-locked laser oscillators.
It contains our famous pulse-picker (TOMBAK) board. All use cases are explained in a well detailed Pulse picker Operating_manual and a specific application note.
The GUI software lets the user have total control of all module functions. It includes several libraries for software integration (LabVIEW VIs, DLLs, Hexa, Python etc.). Complex systems, such as fiber lasers, can be quickly developed on this module platform.
