Jul 7, 2021 | Electronics, Glossary of Spectroscopy Terms, Spectrograph

What is a digitizer? A digitizer, also known as an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), converts the analog signal generated by a spectrometer’s detector into digital data that can be processed and analyzed by a computer. The digitizer’s resolution is...

What is the Spectrometer’s Baseline Offset?

Nov 10, 2017 | Detectors, Electronics, Glossary of Spectroscopy Terms

The baseline offset is the number of counts generated by the detector when there is no light. Several sources of noise are always present, so it is impossible to have no counts. The main components of baseline offset are electronic offset, dark current, and readout...
