Spectrometer electronics
The function of our spectrometer electronics is to convert the analog video signal from the diode-array detector into a robust digital signal that can be read out via a standard interface, such as USB or SPI. The specific electronics required depend on the type of detector your spectrometer is equipped with.
Below, you will find links to all of our available electronics and cameras. For some spectrometers, we also offer the option to deliver the spectrometer without electronics, allowing you to develop your own.
