- Weight: 5 g
- Spectral response range: 340 to 850 nm
- High sensitivity
- Spectral resolution: 15 nm max.
- Supports synchronized integration (electronic shutter function)
- For integration into mobile measurement equipment
- Wavelength conversion factor is listed on test result sheet.
- Hermetic package

Measurement example

Color measurement

A demonstration module with a built-in the mini-spectrometer Micro series was used to measure the spectrum of color sample. Because the Micro series is small, it can be mounted on various color measuring devices such as color adjustment of color printers and dimming of LED lighting.

Application examples

Features

Besides a CMOS image sensor chip integrated with an optical slit by etching technology, the mini-spectrometer micro series employs a reflective concave  grating formed by nanoimprint. In addition, the glass used in the light path of the previous C10988MA-01 is not used in the mini-spectrometer micro series, making it extremely compact.
