We announce the release of new, updated version of A4MEMS, our 3-channel high-voltage amplifier for quick MEMS prototyping. This unit is capable of driving capacitive loads in a wide frequency range and is indispensable tool for operating various types of electrostatic and piezoelectric actuators. In the new version we have significantly improved the frequency response of the amplifier gain, extending the operational regime up to 2 kHz for 4 nF load, along with the other usability enhancements. For details see the corresponding article.
OKO introduces 20(40)-ch high-voltage amplifier units for membrane and piezoelectric deformable mirrors. Features small (40x200x280mm) size, active cooling, low (20W) energy consumption and wide range of AC power supply voltages (85 to 250V). Full signal 400V response is linear from DC to 1kHz on a loads of up to 15nF. Unlimited number of units can be combined to drive deformable mirrors with more than 40 channels.
OKO introduces 20-ch linear piezoelectric deformable mirror for femtosecond pulse shaping. The mirror has 10x50mm active area, controlled by two rows of 10 actuators each. Actuator pitch is 5 mm. Maximum surface deflection is 8 um, figure difference between adjacent actuators can reach 3um. The initial figure is slightly spherical. The mirror can be custom coated with dielectrics and metal-dielectrics. Short (4.1MB) interferometric video of the moving mirror surface. The mirror can be supplied with a complete set of control electronics, including 20-ch 400 V amplifier unit and a 20 (40)-ch USB DAC unit (or a 24-ch 8-bit PCI DAC card) for interfacing to a PC.
