The SBC 1001e electronics is a powerful read out board with USB interface (serial COM port) for different line arrays. It can be used for spectrometric systems as well as for other measuring applications as laser triangulation. The PCB includes a 128 kbyte RAM for storage of user data (e.g. calibration files), a driver for a miniature lamp and a semiconductor laser, a trigger output and the read out of two Hall sensors for detection of outside conditions, e.g. different measuring heads.
