The SYD1230 Red Line Laser Module 650nm 5mW projects a sharp red line using an optical glass cylindrical lens (a curved lens that spreads a beam into a flat line). At 650nm wavelength (nanometres, a measure of light colour), the line appears bright red to the human eye. The syd1230 laser datasheet confirms output power at 5mW, which keeps it in the safe range for project use without special enclosures.
The SYD1230 Line Laser Module draws under 40mA at 3V to 5V, so it runs off a standard USB or Arduino supply without stressing your regulator. One non-obvious detail is that the 120 degree line angle means the projected line width grows significantly as distance increases — at one metre the line is already quite wide. Line uniformity also drops at the edges of the spread. Keep your target distance under half a metre for sharp, even lines.
Robotics engineers, and machine vision developers use syd1230 12mm line laser module red for level detection, alignment, and structured light projects. Connect the positive wire to 3.3V or 5V and ground the negative wire. The laser projects immediately without any warm-up time. StemVolt provides module with trusted quality, ensuring reliable performance and easy usability.
