C9409MA
HAMAMATSU mini-spectrometer RC series is a compact polychromator integrated with a reflection grating and a CMOS linear image
sensor. Two models are available: a mini-spectrometer module (C9407MA) equipped with a driver circuit, and a mini-spectrometer head
(C9409MA) for OEM applications, which contains an optical system and an image sensor in a tiny case measuring only 28 × 28 × 28 mm.
Light guided into the mini-spectrometer head is dispersed into to a spectrum which is then photoelectrically converted and output as video
signals. The mini-spectrometer module has a USB port that connects to a PC for spectrum data collection.
The mini-spectrometer module comes supplied with free sample software that allows setting measurement conditions, acquiring and
saving data, and displaying graphs. Driver software and DLL are also supplied as accessory items to allow the users to configure their own
measurement software.

*1: A conversion factor for converting the image sensor pixel number into a wavelength is recorded in the module. Calculation
factor for converting the A/D converted count into the input light intensity is not provided.
Structure of C9409MA
C9409MA is offered in small size, low-cost units achieved by
integrating optical components into a glass body. The reflec-
tive grating mounted on the glass body is a plastic-molded
replica grating.
