OEM Modules

Santec’s extensive experience in optical component manufacturing, system integration and support makes us an ideal OEM partner for OCT components and modules. We build all the key components for OCT systems in-house, and we regularly customize these to meet specific requirements. Swept source engine supports medical grade standard such as IEC60601and CE mark. We also provide technical support/transfer for launching specific OCT project, services we can support include:


  • Hardware
OEM light sources (swept source)
Interferometers
Photo detectors
Endoscopic fiber probe/catheters
Optical delay lines
Specially designed data acquisition board


  • Software
System control
Custom FFT algorithm
Custom GUI
Post acquisition data analysis and interpretation


 

HSL-200 / 100

HSL-200/100 is an OEM swept source engine based on the same technology used for bench-top type units, HSL-2100/1100.

Maintaining the same high performance of bench-top, the size is miniaturized with external power supply and it supports RS-232C communication for external control and monitoring by the software in the system. Specifications (ex. Scan rate, scan range, coherence length, output power, etc) can be customized to fit to OEM solutions.

FeaturesHSL-200

  • High reliability
  • Compact design
  • Low RIN (Relative Intensity Noise)

Applications

  • OEM source for OCT systems
  • OEM source for in-line inspection systems




IFM-200 / 100

IFM-200/100 is an OEM module of a Mach-Zehnder type interferometer. It can integrate a visible marker LD, optical delay line with external control port. Santec’s packaging technology for optical subsystems is applied to maintain high quality and high reliability as well as lower cost. Custom configuration including other interferometer types (ex. Michelson, Fizeau type) can be designed for OEM solutions.

Features

  • High reliability
  • Compact design
  • Optical integrated delay line, visible marker LD

Applications

  • Interferometer block for OCT systems
  • K-clock module for SS-OCT systems
  • Interferometer block for In-line inspection systems
  • Interferometer block for heterodyne measurement



BPD-200

BPD-200 is a balanced photo detector that outputs the difference of two detector signals. This can be used for reduction of common mode noise due to the laser power fluctuation. In heterodyne detection as in the most of OCT applications, it benefits 3dB sensitivity advantage when detecting the signal inverted in phase in between two input signals. Furthermore, special design significantly reduced the problem of the undesired image artifact which was a major problem in the other balanced detectors. BPD-200 is the best detector ever made specifically for SS-OCT applications.

FeaturesBPD-200

  • Wide dynamic range(DC to 80MHz)
  • High reliability and high gain, high linearity
  • Flat balanced level
  • Specially designed for artifact-reduction

Applications

  • Swept Source – OCT
  • Heterodyne measurement
  • OFDR (Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry)

Santec established an optical component production technology over the past 15 years including optical micro assembly and state-of-the-art MEMS（Micro Electro Mechanical System） for telecom applications. Adapting these technologies, we develop unique OCT fiber catheter for endoscopic applications. Custom design can be proposed for OEM solutions.

Features

  • High reliability
  • Compact design


Applications

  • OCT catheter
  • OCT endoscope
  • Inspection probe for small area
