HPLDD family
New: HPLDD3040
The new HPLDD3040 brings the same control architecture, safety chain, and communications stack to a 30 A platform with 2 mA effective setpoint accuracy.
New product
HPLDD3040 expands the current range
to 30 A
Built on the same protocol, protections, and software workflow as HPLDD1540, the HPLDD3040 is aimed at higher-current laser diode systems while keeping the same compact, integration-friendly form factor.
- 0–30 A current setpoint
- 2 mA effective setpoint accuracy
- Up to 1200 W output power
- USB, RS-232, and RS-485 support
Meet us in person
Laser-Technica Poland at Ptak Warsaw Expo
We will be showcasing the HPLDD family, discussing integration use cases, and sharing the newest documentation materials. If you are visiting the fair, let us know in advance and we will arrange time for a focused technical conversation.
Product family
Two compact driver platforms, one shared workflow
Both HPLDD models share the same control philosophy, command set, desktop software, and safety architecture. Choose the current range that fits the diode system you are building.

Quick comparison
Choose the platform that matches the diode system current range
The two models share the same functional architecture and integration points. The main differences are the output current range, effective setpoint accuracy, and board size.
