MEMS Scanner Evaluation Kits

The evaluation kit "QSDrive Scan Kit" allows small and medium-sized companies in particular to operate ResoLin devices from Fraunhofer IPMS according to specifications without having to develop their own complex control electronics. The evaluation kit consists of a ResoLin device - a gimbal MEMS scanner with a linear axis and an optional, orthogonally oriented resonant axis - as well as control electronics that enable operation of the devices with a supplied optimized trajectory. The device is held by a scan head, also included in the scope of delivery, which can be easily integrated into common optical experimental setups thanks to its special design. Depending on the design of the MEMS device, controlled operation of the device as well as synchronized operation of the resonant axis are also possible. Function control is performed by software that communicates with the electronics via USB.

The evaluation kit "Simple MEMS Driver" allows especially small and medium sized companies to operate resonant MEMS scanners of Fraunhofer IPMS according to specification without the complex in-house development of control electronics. The evaluation kit consists of a 1D- or 2D-resonant device - a gimbal MEMS scanner with one or optionally with two orthogonally oriented resonant axes - as well as the Simple MEMS drive electronics, which enables the operation of both axes with the respective resonant frequency. The device is held by a scan head, which is also included in the scope of delivery. Thanks to its special design, the scan head can be easily integrated into common optical experimental setups. Depending on the design of the MEMS device, synchronized operation of the resonant axes is also possible. Function control is performed by software that communicates with the electronics via USB.
