The Thermo-Electric Cooler (TEC) is found in many applications that require precision temperature control. The small size of the TEC allows precision thermal control of individual components such as fiber optic laser drivers, precision voltage references, or any other temperature critical device. The temperature-critical components are integrated with a TEC and a temperature monitor into a single thermally-engineered module. An added bonus with TECs is the ability to heat, by reversing the current……
