Also known as ESI. These lasers are used for Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and laser trimming (ex: for high precision IC resistors, microprobing)

Often the power supply and the laser have the same name (ie there is a 1:1 mapping with no compatibility across families).

Ezlaze

Ezlaze

266/?

355/532

532

1064

~0.5 mJ

~1 PPS

Semiconductor (microprobe, trim)

PCB repair

Laser: special d-sub

Misc (servos, etc): DB25

System: DB25-E

McMaster: primary system is 355/532
Gemini PIV CMC + d-sub (DE)

IIRC same as polaris laser

Dual lasers

Alternates between which it fires

Literally need two standard power supplies

LCS-II ~1 PPS Laser: special d-sub

Misc (servos, etc): DB25


System: DB25-E

McMaster: misc units in stock
Orion 1064 Silver CMC w/ male pins McMaster: scrap 266 unit from auction
Polaris
Polaris II

controller

Blue round

2 power pins in middle

Circle of 14 small pins

PIV
Quicklaze ~0.5 mJ

~20 PPS

Semiconductor (microprobe, trim)

PCB repair

Silver CMC w/ male pins

DB25 (ezlaze compatible?)

Water cooled ezlaze
Solol20-15Hz

controller

Blue CPC female

3 large power pins

18 smaller pins in 4 rows

Compatibility notes:

  • Ezlaze and LCS-II have very similar connectors. However, their orientation is switched / they are not compatible mechanically (without forcing...) or electrically
    • I think I tried just the servo connector once and it was semi compatible
PIV system

UP-193
UP-213 McMaster: think I got one of these but never tested it
