This is build log for the water cooling module for 3W 445 nm Blue Laser ( NDB 7875 ), to allow laser run at 2.4A for extended amount of time. Practically you can use any kind of laser diode in the standard AIXIS style 12mm module, current will be limited by capacity of FlexMod

I'm happy to share initial prototype of RigidBot laser cutter, utilizing 2nd extruder place and parts. This is really early prototype, but it frigging works and I'm so excited that I decided to share :)
I run 405nm laser at 600mA, with proper heatsink. All this crap mounted on custom designed...
I have fried NDB7875 now, because of ded Mosfet on FlexMod P3
I want to do problem analysis to make sure I not going to repeat this again.
Setup:
FlexMod P3.3 with Bigger heatsink then original and Fan blowing on it
NDB7875 in copper AIXIZ module inserted in 12mm heatsink housing, fan blowing...
Can I modulate FlexMod P3 (3.3) with 24V PWM signal
I know It says 0-5v... but I have o way converting 0-25PWN signal into 0-5V without having reference 5v from somewhere and optocoupler.
Flex mod driven by 24V and I have only 24V PWN signal, driving 405nm laser.
I read somewhere that I can go...
Looking for driver to drive Blue or Violet diode for purpose of Laser cutting.
One of my first candidates is -
2.5 Amp Adjustable Laser Diode Driver Kit, for UV ? Blue diodes, with International Power Adapter | J Tech Photonics, Inc.
I'm looking to drive 0.7-2W Laser Diode (Violet-Blue)...
