Request InfoOcean Optics - Part of Ocean InsightThe ADC2000 PCI-bus analog-to-digital converter from Ocean Optics Inc. is a plug-and-play, desktop PC interface option to its miniature fiber optic spectrometer. The 12-bit, eight-channel device provides 2-MHz sampling frequency and captures 2048 data points in the spectra in 2 ms. It fits into a desktop PC's standard PCI-bus slot and is compatible with any of the company's S2000 spectrometers by means of a 25-pin interface cable. The ADC2000 also features a channel rotator, which permits spectra from all eight channels to be gathered at once.See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 6/27/2023Tapered AmplifierThe 895-nm miniTA tapered amplifier from Toptica Eagleyard features integrated thermal management and beam collimation in an optimized, hermetically sealed butterfly package with 14 thick pins for...Photonics Showcase January 2024 IssueMeet the Varius SpectrometerCrafted with patent-pending technology, the Varius™ redefines versatility, delivering precision like never before.
