    Ebay Laser !

    I just read the ad, a green laser with a 50mw diode does not even make close to 50mw total output due to losses.

    What does TTL Modulation mean?

    No the best way I would do this is use a 555 to clock a 7474 or 7476 flip flop, perfect square wave signal. (Let me know if you need a wiring schematic) just use the 74C74 or 74C76 flip flop, it's a cmos chip that behaves like a TTL.

    Laser additive property?

    Nothing wrong with that TJ, I feel the same, especially since one time when my son was 8 years old he saw me toss a cup of gas on the campfire to accelerate it, as soon as I turned my back the little turd tried to dump the whole gas can on the fire.

    What does TTL Modulation mean?

    TTL modulation is on/off only. any attempt at otherwise will stress the circuits and burn things out. When working with TTL, savvy builders will tie unused inputs to either +5 volts or ground to prevent unwanted "floating" of the voltage. Laser drivers are usually already "tied" with a...
