• The I3 and I3S Inline Controllers provide overdrive strobe and continuous operation to lights from a small package when larger, more versatile external controllers are not necessary. 
• Switching between continuous-on, gating on/off and strobe overdrive is seamless. The I3 and I3S employ Ai’s exclusive Adaptive OverdriveTM that optimizes strobe power regardless of input Pulse Width. 
• The I3 is a default-on device on power-up, whereas the I3S is a default-off device, requiring a trigger to illuminate. 
• All ICS models employ reverse input polarity protection. 
• Provides continuous-on and DC gating on/off control as well as 0-10 volt analog dimming. 30 uSec response time. 
• A wash down version of all ICS drivers is provided automatically with any wash down light to which it is attached. 
• 0 – 100% Intensity Control with optional DCS-MP, purchased separately, will provide manual intensity control via an external potentiometer.

• Flexible bench configuration empowers users to easily set up instruments and DUTs to match any measurement workflow.
• Automated, multi-instrument calibration workflows empower users to achieve high accuracy results across diverse setups with minimal user intervention.
• Built-in system calibration verification instills confidence in measurement accuracy before data collection begins.
• Comprehensive small-signal, large-signal, and pulsed testing captures real-world device behavior for reliable design and modeling.
• Powerful visualization and analytics suite empowers users to quickly interpret results, extract models, and drive faster design decisions.
