Connections
Current Source Output
: A 9-pin D-sub connector is located on the rear panel of the LDC-3726 and
LDC-3736. A 9W4 connecter is located on the rear panel of the LDC-37620. The connections for
these connectors are shown below.

Interlock Connections:
For the LDC-3726 and LDC-3736, a short must exist between the Interlock
pins (pins 1 and 2) of the current source output connector in order for the laser output to be enabled.
The short can be a direct short across the pins or a switch to prevent laser operation until the switch
is closed. If a short does not exist between these two pins, the INTERLOCK LED illuminates on the
front panel and the laser output is disabled.
For the LDC-37620, a short must exist on the rear BNC interlock connector in order for the laser
diode output to be enabled. The short can be made using the 50
Ω
BNC terminator included in the
shipping kit or can be a switch to prevent laser operation until the switch is closed. If a short does not
exist between these two pins, the INTERLOCK LED illuminates on the front panel and the laser
output is disabled.
The interlock terminals on the LASER connector, pins 1 and 2, must be kept isolated
from all other connections including earth ground.
The Current Source output terminals of the LDC-3706 Laser Controller (Laser
Anode and Laser Cathode) should never be shorted together or loaded with less
than 0.1
Ω
. Doing so may result in damage to the instrument.
