General Information
The LED modulating system (DC3100 series) is designed for frequency domain
Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (FLIM) and other microscopy applications that
require modulated high-power LED illumination sources.
The compact LED driver in the DC3100 series can supply a high current (up to 1A)
to high-power LEDs. The DC3100 series system includes an optical head,
modulating electronics, and a heat sink designed to dissipate the heat generated by
high-power LEDs. The design of the head allows the user to mount any compatible
star-shaped PCB packaged LED.
Please refer to chapter Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging for application notes.
