How can I identify this laser diode?

[dunkelheit_phoenix_2008]

How can I know about the laser power input and output, impedance, model, etc about this diode; I don't have a start point, books, articules, any information is useful. Thanks.

From that photo? What laser diode--there is no laser diode in the photo? FYI, nothing + nothing is still nothing.

If your time is worth nothing you can attempt tp power it up and/or disassemble the entire thing and figure out what it is, if you have the skills, knowledge, test equiptment required to do so.

Got it!

More like a 650nm 5mW

Removing the glass, this package is totally unnkown for me... I'm able to identify the P-N junction, but there's no code, no number.

You pulled this out of a 41¢ keychain, didn't you?

Actually, yes, lol, well... I don't really remember where I found it, in fact I used it in an tracking with the Pi and it has an excelent resolution, there was an 62ohm SMD resistor in the input, could this be a clue?; separating the cells I found the Junctions, P-N, but also other caps, my question is: for what reason this caps are made of? what's their function? I should assume that this laser diode model isn't regulated by any kind of moderator? what could be the model of glass?

Just... throw it away, pal. It barely qualified as a toy when it was assembled. Now it's a pile of scrap.

Hi,
That what your showing us looks like a diode that comes out of a 405nm sled . The sled contain a 405 and a small red diode.
When I salvaged a 405 from the sled this is whats left a low power red .

Na it's one of those dollar store key chains. They have a dim white LED and a red laser. Two buttons for each function. I got a few new ones saved somewhere. Maybe I'll look for one and post pics. They don't last.

Hi,
What I was just saying is there is a small red included in the 405nm sleds that looks exactly like that. I disassembled quite a few sleds in the past . And that was left in the sled. I agree about it came out of a keychain laser, but there are the same diode in a 405nm sled.
