The [sub]system consists of two resonant optical choppers (type CH), chopper "A" and chopper "B", in a MASTER/SLAVE mode. The system can be used as a "stand alone" unit, in the laboratory or as a portable instrument, or incorporated into a larger instrument/system. The two modulators are ONE FIXED FREQUENCY each, picked from the range of 5 Hz to 20 kHz. They are small size, light weight, low cost and long life devices. They require low power drive electronics and do not radiate any electromagnetic interference (EMI). The choppers have high amplitude stability and high frequency stability. They are IR, VIS, UV. Reference signal and position output available.

The PLD-2C driver phase locks two choppers. Chopper "B" is phase locked to chopper "A" (the slave is locked to the master). The phase relationship to the master is factory set to customer's requirement (0° to 360°) and is front panel adjustable in a range of ±45 ° minimum. The driver can be a fully integrated driver with front panels controls and internal power supplies or a printed circuit board level driver. The dimensions of the cased driver are: 12" × 10" × 3.8". The PLD-2C-PC driver is a printed circuit board level driver, which requires an external ±15V DC power supply.
