Photosensor amplifier
C6386-01
Light-to-voltage conversion amplifier with optical
fiber
Features
Applications
Easy handling
Optical power meters
Built-in photodiode allows easy detection of light just by connecting to a voltmeter.
Laser monitors
Optical fiber light input
Measures light at a narrow detection point. Separating the
amplifier from the detection point allows measurement in
unusual environments and achieves low noise.
Precision photometry
Various light detection (sparks inside equipment, etc.)

*1: When there is a temperature difference between a product and the surrounding area in high humidity environment, dew condensation
may occur on the product surface. Dew condensation on the product may cause deterioration in characteristics and reliability.
Note: Exceeding the absolute maximum ratings even momentarily may cause a drop in product quality. Always be sure to use the
product within the absolute maximum ratings.
