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.
