ABSTRACT:
A system for controlling an acousto-optic device includes an acousto-optic device having an acoustic transducer and configured to store a number of design specific parameters for a parametric tuning algorithm. the system includes a frequency synthesizer coupled to the acousto-optic device and configured to provide a radio frequency tuning signal to the acousto-optic device via the acoustic transducer. A programmable controller is coupled to the acousto-optic device and the frequency synthesizer and wherein is configured to read the design specific parameters and to receive a second number of parameters comprising one or more of environmental parameters, setup specific parameters and user specified performance parameters. the programmable controller is also configured to apply the design specific parameters and the other parameters to the design specific parametric tuning algorithm to select a radio frequency tuning signal that optimizes a user specified performance parameter.
