QSI TO18-5.6mm Packaged 635nm 20mW Red Laser Diode

The QL63H5SA/B/C-RI is a high-performance 635nm red continuous wave (CW) laser diode, engineered to deliver a reliable 20mW optical output—making it an ideal light source for optical level applications. It operates as a single transverse/TM mode laser, ensuring stable, consistent emission for precision use cases.
This diode combines robust performance and practical design:
  • Core Specifications (at 25°C case temperature): It runs on a typical 2.3V operating voltage (max 2.6V) and 65mA operating current (max 85mA) at 20mW output, with a low 40mA typical threshold current (max 60mA). Its slope efficiency hits 0.7mW/mA (range: 0.4–1.0mW/mA) for efficient energy conversion.
  • Optical Performance: The 635nm lasing wavelength (range: 634–644nm) produces bright red visible light, paired with controlled beam divergence (typical 9° parallel, 30° perpendicular) and tight beam angle tolerance (±3°) for focused, accurate propagation.
  • Durability & Integration: Housed in a compact 5.6mm package, it includes a built-in photo diode (30V reverse voltage rating) for performance monitoring. It operates reliably in -10–50°C temperatures (storage range: -40–85°C) and requires APC (Auto Power Control) operation with a heat sink (do not exceed 20mW at 50°C).
With its balanced power, stable mode operation, and compact form factor, this laser diode suits industrial and professional devices needing precise, low-power red laser output.
