The Analog Controller for variable optics Meadowlark Optics' controller is specifically designed for precise control of liquid crystal devices. This controller, model B1010, is compatible with all standard Meadowlark Optics liquid crystal devices as well as other compatible nematic LC devices Its independent voltage controls allow the simple and reproducible selection of two retardance values. A manual toggle switch makes it easy to switch between the two states, e.g. from quarter-wave to three-quarter-wave retardance, which polarizes linear light between left and right circularly.
Liquid crystal analog control for precise polarization control
With the variable optics controller you can precisely control retardance values. Two independent voltage controls allow you to quickly switch between preset retardance values, such as from quarter-wave to three-quarter-wave retardance. Thanks to a manual toggle switch, control is simple and efficient, giving you precise polarization control.
Precision through retardance-to-voltage correlation
Meadowlark Optics supplies each liquid crystal device with a retardance-to-voltage curve. This curve ensures a precise correlation between the two parameters. This allows you to directly compare the data in combination with the Analog Controller for variable optics This allows you to control your devices precisely and achieve optimal results.
Versatile compatibility and flexibility
The controller is compatible with a wide range of devices, including Variable Retarder, UV retarder, MWIR retarder and OEM LCVRs. It also allows you to easily control shutters, rotators and many other liquid crystal devices. In addition, the external power supply or the optional 9V battery offers maximum flexibility. This means you can use the controller in a variety of ways and in a wide range of applications.
Compact variable optics controller for versatile applications
The Analog Controller for variable optics impresses with its compact size of only 3.3 x 6.0 x 2.2 inches and a weight of less than a pound. This makes it easy to transport and flexible to use. It meets all CE standards and is optimized for an operating voltage of 0 to 20 VAC at a 2 kHz AC square wave. Due to its robust construction, it can withstand even intensive use and remains reliable and durable in laboratory environments.
Thanks to its powerful and compact design, the controller is the ideal solution for precise control of liquid crystal devices. Therefore, you benefit from its ease of use, flexibility and reliability, which make it perfect for research, development and laboratory applications.
