The application provides a
tunable laser source initial
wavelength fast positioning device and method, relates to the field of photoelectric testing technology, and comprises a motor, a light shield plate, a light unit and a
light detector array; the output shaft
tail end of the motor is connected with the light unit, drives the rotation of the internal reflector of the light unit, and the light unit outputs a
wavelength monitoring value in real time; the coaxial light shield plate is arranged on the output shaft of the motor, and the light shield plate moves left and right along with the rotation of the motor; a plurality of photoelectric detectors are arranged on the
light detector array, are arranged longitudinally along the output shaft of the motor, and collect photoelectric detection signals of the
light detector array; the light shield plate of the application reaches the
optical coupling quickly within a limited number of motor rotations, and cooperates with the light
detector array to further improve the positioning speed; the
wavelength monitoring function is used to monitor whether the initial wavelength is positioned accurately, and the initial wavelength position can be fine-tuned accordingly, so that the initial wavelength positioning precision is further ensured.
