SpectrAcq2

Overview

The SpectrAcq2 is not just another readout system - it's a compact, high speed, high performance spectral data acquisition controller designed for advanced spectroscopy and light measurement applications. The optional photo counting detection module allows you to measure the light level by counting photons, one by one. This method is the most sensitive technique for light measurement. Designed to work as a stand-alone unit or with most of the HORIBA Jobin Yvon/SPEX high performance detectors with versatility at an affordable price.
