Mini-spectrometer TM series
C10082MD, C10083MD
For UV to near IR, integrating optical system, image sensor and circuit
TM series mini-spectrometers are polychromators integrated with optical elements, an image sensor and a driver circuit. Two models are
available: C10082MD (TM-UV/VIS-MOS) and C10083MD (TM-VIS/NIR-MOS). Light to be measured is guided into the entrance port of TM series
through an optical fiber and the spectrum measured with the built-in image sensor is output from the USB port to a PC for data acquisition. No
external power supply is required since USB bus power is used for circuit operation. The TM series comes with sample software, device driver
and DLL. The sample software lets you easily set measurement conditions, acquire and save data, and display graphs.

*1: A conversion factor for converting the image sensor pixel number into a wavelength is recorded in the module. A calculation
factor for converting the A/D converted count into the input light intensity is not provided.
*2: Coaxial cable for external trigger input sold separately. Refer to the “Mini-spectrom eters Selection Guide” for details on
external triggers.
*3: Depends on the slit opening. Values were measured with the slit opening listed in the table.
*4: Measured under constant light input conditions
*5: W hen monochromatic light of the following wavelengths is input, spectral stray light is defined as the ratio of the count
measured at the input wavelength, to the count measured in a region of the input wavelength ±40 nm.
C10082MD: 500 nm, C10083MD: 650 nm
