Shunt Regulators
-
These are the standard reference voltage source widely used by the feedback circuits of switching power supplies. Compared to the Zener diode, which is a discrete product, a shunt regulator has much better voltage precision because voltage control is carried out as an IC.

Shunt Voltage References
-
Analog Devices offers a broad line of shunt precision voltage references that combine excellent accuracy and temperature stability with low noise and small packages. These devices operate in a manner that is functionally equivalent to a Zener diode. The bias current must be set higher than the sum of the maximum quiescent current of the voltage reference and the maximum expected load current. Since shunt voltage references are typically biased with a resistor, the voltage reference can operate on a wide range of input voltages.

High-power Laser Diode Assembly
-
The laser diode is one of the most common devices used throughout photonics. The micro-assembly process calls for the placement and bonding (align-&-attach) of single emitters, or multiple laser diodes (stacked or complete bars), the placement, active alignment and bonding of necessary micro-optical elements, subsequent device testing, and ultimately packaging and quality control. ficonTEC’s machine systems are capable of all the steps necessary for assembling laser diodes, even high-power devices. Multiple in-line systems can be configured to address entire process segments.
