 Digital detector controller

 Digital detector accessories

Totally integrated.

APPLICATIONS

Laser Induced Native Fluorescence (LINF) detectors for CE or HPLC, especially for aromatic amino acids, peptides and proteins

Deep UV optical system alignment

High intensity deep UV wavelength standard

Instruments employing direct laser induced resonance fluorescence and Raman analysis for:

  • Native fluorescence imaging microscope
  • Hand-held targeted chemical sensing for trace contamination detection and indentification
  • Ultra-sensitive surface contamination profiling
  • Municipal and industrial waste water contamination on-line monitoring
  • Soil contamination profiling
  • Aerosol contamination detection
  • Direct laser induced photoluminescence(PL) probe for wide bandgap semiconductors

Photon Systems’ new digital controller board is part of a family of accessories optimized for our line of deep ultraviolet lasers. The tiny digital controller connects conveniently the popular Hamamatsu PMT module or a wide range of silicon photodiodes and turns them into computer controlled gated boxcar integrators for time based fluorescence measurments and more.

Full of features.

Full duplex RS488 control with a 32 bit, 75 MIPS processor and 256K of on board RAM and another 256K of flash memory make these detector controllers powerful. Up to four switchable feedback elements, that is four decade integration capacitors or three capacitors and 1 resistor enable real-time data acquisition. Fully adjustable start and finish intgration parameters in 2 µs steps allows time-based gated fluorescence measurements.

Noise Free Digital Signal.

High resolution 24 bit delta-sigma data converter with 16 bit resolution combined with digital PMT gain control of four decade for up to 4 x 10^6 total gain results in highest accuracy. On board temperature sensor and digitally addressable self-test for calibration mean total control. LabView controllable computer interface means you can program all these features from your laptop and analyze the data where you need to.

Flexibility Means Freedom.


Daisy-chain multiple boards to sample and digitize up ‘n’ simultaneous PMT or photo-diode detector outputs—as much as your host computer can process. Being an integral part of our family the digital detector controller interfaces directly with our 224 and 248 nm deep ultra-violet lasers so that you can design experiments with laser excitiation and multi-channel Raman. fluorescence, and phosphorescence measurements simultaneously in multiple bands, all controlled from a labview computer.

All with one integrated controller.
