This photometer detects an optical input signal and converts it into a precision, logarithmic voltage signal with high resolution. The optical power meter is used to find the maximum optical intensity quickly when integrated in fully automatic, optical FMPA alignment systems.
The logarithmic scaling of the output signal is particularly advantageous for fast scans because the signal strength can fluctuate by several orders of magnitude within a few milliseconds.
The large wavelength range of the photometer enables working in both the visible and infrared range without switching.
The design of the optical input interface is such that the placement of the optical fiber in the connector has no influence on the measurement of the optical signal.
Wafer probing, packaging. Accessories for FMPA alignment systems in all applications that do not require measuring the absolute value of the optical power.
