Best CD burner to buy for strongest red laser

CD burning diodes are infrared, DVD burning diodes are red, blu-ray burning diodes are blue/violet. The DVD burners will have both a red and an IR diode (for CD burning), so you should

Loneoceans Laboratories

The project initially was to harvest the laser diode from any DVD drive and to power it to make laser light! But after some reading up, it was apparent that DVD writers,

A high power laser come from a DVD burner, actually works!

Re: A high power laser come from a DVD burner? It only takes around 30-35 mw to burn a disc. The difference with DVD burners is the wavelength, not the power. A CD burner uses a 780nm

DVD-RW (Liteon) teardown stuff details (motors,laser diodes IR & red

One is infrared (CD burner) and one red (DVD burner). Both diodes have about the same order of magnitude performance and thermal effects (maybe the infra burn a little more).

CD Player Laser Diode Current Voltage and Power

The difference is optical power (as measured with a Laser Power Meter) that is radiated as light, vs. electrical power that heats up the diode junction. So the efficiency is low, just like that of a LED.

How powerful is a CD burner laser?

How powerful is a CD burner laser? Lasers in these drives tend to have a pulse output of about 100 – 250mW and continuous power 50 – 125mW and work in the infrared range at a

CD/DVD Player/burner

In total there are 27 carriage, most with two diodes (The IR and the Red, I think), others just one. How do I know which diode is from what? It has some detail on the circuit to help out? Or

What laser diode is in a DVD burner? – MSI

DVD players use a red laser of about 650 nm wavelength (the same colour as red laser pointers). This is shorter than the IR laser that was used in CD audio and CD-ROM drives, but longer than the 405 nm

Laser diodes from CD-RW drives can cut and burn!

Lasers in these drives tend to have a pulse output of about 100 - 250mW and continuous power 50 - 125mW and work in the infrared range at a wavelength of 780nm. Average operating current is about

DVD Formats and How to Drive Laser Diodes to Record and

The drivers consist of three input channels, a read channel with RF oscillator and two precision current amplifier outputs to drive the CD and DVD laser diodes for erasing and writing. The oscillating

Bare&Basic CD and DVD Burning Laser Diodes How to use all

This is the second Bare&Basic, a complete guide on how to use nearly any kind of CD or DVD burning Laser Diode. Learn how find and used any type or form factor in your project. Get a good view of

How to Make a Cutting Laser From a CD ROM

Making a cutting laser using the CD laser diode can be done using a plastic flashlight, a CD ROM disk drive and a few parts acquired from a laser supply store. A limited knowledge of how to use a

CD/DVD Player/burner

You should look for a part number or name and start trying to find out what you have. 16x red diodes are nice and powerful so if you end up with that, nice find.

Dissection of a Blu-ray Reader Assembly: The Laser Diode

The laser diode can actually contains three laser diodes emitting at 780, 660, and 405 nm (for CD, DVD, and Blu-ray, respectively). These are connected in a CCC

Current and Voltage need to Drive DVD Laser Diodes

Could this be a laser diode that can emit both wavelengths? I also have a 2005 laptop DVD/CD burner that has class 3B diodes. Any advice or information on what voltage and current

Powerful laser diodes from DVD-RW drive

I soldered two cables to the unit for both diodes and made current-stabilising power supply that allows you to switch the operation of infrared LEDs, red LEDs, or both
