PEM-based optical systems require detectors with frequency response of at least twice the operating frequency of the PEM. This makes Hinds detection systems ideal for your PEM applications.
For many applications, separate lowpass or DC signals and wide-band AC signals derived from the detector output are required. With the help of the Signal Conditioning Unit , this is possible.
