-The D2-212 saturated absorption spectroscopy module provides error signals derived from saturated absorption spectroscopy of atomic rubidium, cesium, or potassium. It contains a vapor cell, internal temperature controller, balanced photodetectors, and optics.  Temperature control stabilizes the number density of atoms in the cell.The photodiode output is shot-noise limited out to greater than 5 MHz for photocurrents of 100 μA and above.  The high bandwidth of the feedback enables tight solid locking that is immune to vibrations and shock.  The D2-212 is powered by a cable that plugs into the power connectors on any D2 series electronics module or into an ICE-PB1 board, depending on which system you purchased.+The D2-212 saturated absorption spectroscopy module provides error signals derived from saturated absorption spectroscopy of atomic rubidium, cesium, or potassium.

 The extent of the trim range can be determined by probing the location shown in <imgref trimpots2> with a voltmeter referenced to case ground (the outer shell of the SMA connector is a good reference point). Probing this location gives the wiper voltage of the trimpot which corresponds to temperature as shown in the table below. This 10-turn trim pot sets temperature from 15°C (fully CCW) to 75°C (10 turns CW).  The 5-turn point is approximately 42°C. The following table gives approximate temperature settings for the three available alkali options: The extent of the trim range can be determined by probing the location shown in <imgref trimpots2> with a voltmeter referenced to case ground (the outer shell of the SMA connector is a good reference point).
