Dos and Don’ts

Never

ground any output connector.

Never

use any grounded probes at the output.

Do not

connect your oscilloscope to the output!

This will immediately destroy the driver and the probe!
For measuring current and voltage you connect the scope to pin 9 or pin 4 of the BOB
connector respectively.

Never

create a short over the capacitor clamps while the capacitors contain energy!

Keep connecting cables between power supply and driver as well as the connection
between driver and laser diode as short as possible.

Mount the driver on an appropriate heat sink!

Please be aware that there might be hot surfaces, be careful not to touch
them!

Do never connect the oscilloscope to the output connectors!!!!

(Please note: above picture shows another but similar PicoLAS driver)
