German term or phrase: Simmerstrom
Hello,

Does anyone know what 'Simmerstrom' is?
Its related to the term Schwelbetrieb which refers to 'Threshold current'

Signal zeigt an, dass sich das LDM im Schwellbetrieb befindet (durch die Laserdioden fließt ein Simmerstrom).
It's a description of the various functions of the laser equipment.

Thanks ever so much for your help.

druppelstroom


Explanation:
De term Simmerstrom is afgeleid van het Engelse simmering > trickle current
De Nederlandse term hiervoor is druppelstroom - gebruikt als onderhoudsstroom in flitslampen en acculaders.


Example sentence(s):
  • Die "druppel-stroom" zou 100mA zijn, dat is teveel op lange termijn.
  • Simmering is nothing more than allowing a trickle current (50mA to 10A) to flow in the lamp between pulses.

agree  Willem Wunderink: Ah, mooi! De stroom gaat nog steeds wel via de diode ("...durch die Laserdioden fließt ein Simmerstrom...") maar het gaat inderdaad om het systeem. Dit is correct: ik zal mijn suggestie verwijderen.

  -> Het duidelijkst wordt het uitgelegd in https://analogmodules.com/laser-electronics/simmer-supplies/ - het gaat in de vraag over lasers, en de Simmerstrom is geen eigenschap van de diode maar een instelling van het systeem
