Request InfoAMS-TAOS USA Inc.The TSL237S released by Texas Advanced Optoelectronic Solutions Inc. (Taos) is a high-resolution light-to-frequency converter that combines a silicon photodiode and a current-to-frequency converter on a single monolithic CMOS integrated circuit. Output is a square wave -- 50% duty cycle -- with frequency directly proportional to the light intensity, or irradiance, on the photodiode. The instrument is temperature-compensated for the UV to the visible range, from 320 to 700 nm, and it responds from 320 to 1050 nm. Digital output enables direct interface to a microcontroller, and operating...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPHOTONICS HANDBOOK ARTICLESPhotonics HandbookDetectors: Guideposts on the Road to SelectionAny number of medical, industrial, and analytical applications requires the detection of light.
