Detector Amplifier
Detector Amplifier
Current-to-voltage amplifier
0 to 5 V low impedance output
300:1 gain (adjustable)
Threshold indicator LED
Wide input power (5-9 V)
Negative detector bias available
The A430 provides an interface between low level detector currents and the low impedance voltage needs of standard data receiving equipment, for those OEM's and customers who are interested in using an IL detector with their own PLC's, data loggers and data acquisition systems. The gain can accommodate an adjustment range from 150 nanoamps up to 50 microamps to match the needs of the application. In addition to a linear voltage output, the A430 has a built-in threshold detector which toggles a low output warning LED and a 5 V logic level. The LED also serves as a power on indicator. A reverse detector bias is available for high speed solid state applications or to bias photoconductive devices such as vacuum photodiodes and pyroelectrics.
