MODULE Mini-spectrometer TM series C10082CA, C10082CAH, C10083CA, C10083CAH High sensitivity type (integrated with back-thinned type CCD image sensor) TM series mini-spectrometers are polychromators integrated with optical elements, an image sensor and a driver circuit. Light to be measured is guided into the entrance port of TM series through an optical fiber and the spectrum measured with the built-in image sensor is output from the USB port to a PC for data acquisition. They are high sensitivity mini-spectrometers employing a back-thinned type CCD image sensor. Their sensitivity is about two orders of magnitudes higher than CMOS type making TM series even more ideal for low-light-level measurement. C10082CAH and C10083CAH are high resolution type (spectral resolution: 1 nm Typ.). Mini-spectrometer TM series comes supplied with free sample software that allows setting measurement conditions, acquiring and saving data, and displaying graphs. Driver software and DLL are also supplied as accessory items to allow the users to configure their own measurement software.

In these mini-spectrometers an optical filter is attached to the image sensor to cut off high-order light, but this also causes a drop in the image sensor output at the following wavelengths. C10082CA/10082CAH: Near 340 nm and 500 nm, C10083CA/C10083CAH: Near 500 nm and 700 nm Types not using a high-order light cut-off filter are also available. Please specify by adding “-01” to the type number when ordering.

Light to be measured is guided into the entrance port of TG series through an optical fiber and the spectrum measured with the built-in image sensor is output through the USB port to a PC for data acquisition. There are no moving parts inside the unit so stable measurements are obtained at all times. An optical fiber that guides light input from external sources allows a flexible measurement setup.
