The XL-PLPT5 520B-15mW is a single-mode semiconductor laser packaged in a TO56 casing (with a built-in photodiode). Its typical emission wavelength is 520nm, with a continuous wave (CW) optical output power of 15mW (at TC=25℃). This device supports both continuous wave and pulse modes, has a high modulation bandwidth, and is great for high-precision, high-speed modulation applications that need a green laser (520nm). It meets ROHS environmental standards and has a moisture sensitivity level of MSL 2.
