So, I need a little bit of clarification. What exactly is the test load used for? I've set one up already, but I don't really know how to use it. Does it work to change current on a driver? Alter something on the laser diode?
Another question...I know diodes can get easily fried if you overpower them, even if for a tiny moment. How can I go about knowing the capabilities of a diode, and how can I make the current on a driver be select to output close to the diode's potential?
Lastly, a multimeter. How does this thing work with the test load?
