Heat Sinking Guidelines

A laser power sensor absorbs laser power while measuring it; if that power is not removed at least as fast as it comes in, the sensor could overheat and fail. Read the full article

How to determine the lowest power your sensor can measure?

Quite often we receive questions about the minimum power parameter provided in our power sensor data sheets. For example, customers ask what would happen if they used a sensor with a minimum power rating of 20 mW to measure a 15 mW beam. Or how much above the minimum power should you be to get a reasonably accurate reading? Read the full article
