*Looks really, really, really, REALLY sheepish...* OK, so I figured out what I did. Turns out the mini-datasheet diagram was not mirrored as I thought, but rather, 'Not Used' =/= 'Not Connected'. I used the measured power consumption of my supply to tell whether there was a circuit, and...

Hi everyone! See that is what is giving me pause, the pinout above is different to the one with the mini-datasheet that my diodes arrived with. Mine says the diodes are case negative. That in itself wouldn't be odd except there are other things about the datasheet that look out of place, for...

Hello, thanks for all your replies! If you could all bear with me, but both the DDL driver and my power supply (when set correctly) are constant current sources, so the voltage output will be dependant entirely load which is my diode; according to this site (Laser driver - It can be done) the...

Hello, I have just got my first laser diodes, a couple of PHR-805s; I have connected one to my bench power supply to see if I can get it to do anything, before putting it in a case - but it isn't lasing, or emitting any kind of light. I have it connected to a bench power supply current limited...
