Speed of Light
$0.00
Very short but powerful pulses of light are emitted from the box.When the light pulses hit the special retroflective foil of the reflector they are directed back towards the source – with no need for tedious adjustments.Via a beamsplitter, the light pulses finally hit a high speed photodiode, converting them into electric pulses to be displayed on an oscilloscope.A separate synchronization signal marks the time of pulse emission and constitutes a reference for timing the pulses.
Description
Included are:
• Speed of light apparatus
• Power adapter
• Reflector screen
• English manual
The oscilloscope is not included.
An economy class, two channel, 25 MHz oscilloscope is usually OK, but better results are obtained with a 50 MHz or 100 MHz oscilloscope.
We offer two different oscilloscopes which work perfectly with the speed of light apparatus:
• 400100 – PC Oscilloscope 60 MHz
• 400150 – Benchtop Oscilloscope 60 MHz
