We report on the generation of a high average power, flat supercontinuum using a compact ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier. The femto-and picosecond pulses delivered by the amplifier are coupled into two different photonic crystal fibers. By using picosecond pulses the highest output power of 5 W with
