And a measurement of the oven's step response

  • I used a lab power supply as a current source for the TEC on the oven
  • I tweaked the current nob to make a current step
  • I looked at the step response
  • I used a phone video of the readout on the front of the Newport 3040 to get time stamps b/c it was so easy
  • (I will still be hooking up the RS232)

Results

  • I get a time constant of 60 seconds
  • This is an oven pole frequency of 16.7 mHz
