General Description

The Pockels Cells Drivers by POC are precision-engineered for driving KD*P and BBO-based electro-optic devices. These drivers generate high-voltage signals corresponding to the input trigger frequency, ensuring optimal performance for modulation tasks. With applications in high-speed and low-speed environments, the drivers are suited for laser modulation, switching, and pulse shaping.

These drivers are available in integrated and split configurations. The integrated drivers support low repetition frequencies (~1 kHz), while split drivers are optimized for high-frequency applications (~1 MHz). The drivers produce highly customizable waveforms (positive, negative, and square), ensuring adaptability to specific operational needs. Built for industrial use, the devices combine durability with advanced functionality.
