Introducing a miniature spectrometer

Ocean Optics has expanded its range of customised products for optical sensing with the EMBED miniature spectrometer, a small-footprint optical bench with minimal electronics Designed around a next-generation optical bench, EMBED provides excellent thermal stability and measurement reliability, yet contains only essential electronics to reduce footprint and simplify integration.

The onboard electronics provide fundamental spectral pre-processing and multi-channel capability, as well as native SPI communication support that establishes a direct, stable and fast interface with microcontrollers and industrial control systems. Like all Ocean Optics spectrometers, EMBED’s design permits extensive optical component customisation to support a wide variety of applications.

In its standard configuration, the EMBED includes a robust 2048-element CCD-array detector and selectable optical bench components – including entrance apertures, gratings, order sorting filters and more – that make it possible for the EMBED to support low-light and high-throughput measurements.

Its design means that EMBED has exceptional thermal and environmental stability – attractive features for process and other applications where temperature and environmental factors can affect measurements. In addition, the design supports multichannel functionality, allowing users to make simultaneous or timed-gated measurements from multiple EMBED spectrometers within a single system.
