How LASORB was developed
In June 2008, Pangolin was tasked with developing a laser diode driver for an aerospace application. Reliability was a key factor. In researching the issue of ESD protection, Pangolin’s President and CTO, William R. Benner, Jr., evaluated all of the techniques listed elsewhere at this website — and found problems with all of them. Benner had previous experience working in the field of RF propagation, so he approached the problem from an RF perspective. In doing so, LASORB was developed and extensively tested.
