The resolution is controlled by 3 factors:
The resolution setting controls the output slit disk. This disk has a fixed number of slits in it. Since the setting only control one of the factors that determines the resolution, and the disk has a fixed number of slits, the set value may not always be the actual resolution. Keep in mind the OSA does calculate actual resolution and displays it on the soft key where you select the resolution you want. Also note that sometimes the actual resolution is better than the selected and sometimes it is not. Please view the atached PowerPoint slides that explain how the OSA resolution works.
High performance with a 20 picometer wavelength resolution supporting 25 GHz DWDM spacing and 40G/100G applications, this OSA also supports non-Telecom applications with a wavelength range from 600nm to 1700nm.
Unique LONG wavelength range of 1200 to 2400 nm makes this the world's first and only OSA specifically designed for use in advance applications such as Carbon Monoxide (CO), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) gas detection and LIDAR.
Um analisador óptico de espectro (ou OSA) é um instrumento de precisão projetado para medir e exibir a distribuição de energia de uma fonte ótica em um intervalo de comprimento de onda específico. Um rastreamento OSA exibe a energia na escala vertical e o comprimento de onda na escala horizontal.
A Yokogawa oferece soluções para medir componentes e sistemas óticos tradicionais e de ponta, atendendo à crescente demanda por linhas de fibra de alta capacidade e novas tecnologias de componentes.
