There are three models in universal module series:
The output signal is standard voltage with a fifty Ohms impedance (50Ω). Additional DC output is available as a standard.
Programmable detection modules enable control of many parameters, such as bandwidth and gain, even during normal operation.
This opens up completely new possibilities to designers of measuring systems.
In a fully analogue input circuit, many switching elements are used, even with a variable, digitally-controlled capacitance to compensate the transimpedance input stage.
The internal architecture is similar to standard detection modules. The main difference is that most of the internal functional blocks are configurable.
To provide information about the module status it is equipped with bias and dc offset monitoring circuits. It is possible to build a system with adaptive gain or overload protection. Adjustable bandwidth can help to achieve the best possible noise performance for various signal types.
Many applications require high-time resolution or, equivalently, high frequency-bandwidth optical detection.
For these applications, VIGO developed ultra-high-speed detection modules series.
It was necessary to apply a special design, both in term electronics and mechanics. The system was designed to suport the propagation of high-speed signals, mounting the detector to the enclosure as close ad possible to a PCB board and input circuits. The manufacturing process requires fine tuning of the circuit with a specific detector.
Additionally, it has DC monitor. It is a DC coupled signal, taken directly from the 1st stage preamplifier. One should take into account the 1 VDC offset at the DC monitor output.
This output may be used for:
