PR-680 SpectraDuo Spectroradiometer/Photometer : Click here for PR-680L.
Unique Design
The PR-680 SpectraDuo marks the beginning of a new era in light measurement. This unique patent pending, battery powered portable instrument is the first and only combined fast-scanning 256 detector element spectroradiometer and PMT based photometer on the market. The PR-680 has three available operating modes
  1. A fast scanning spectroradiometer (like the PR-655)
  2. A highly sensitive photometer (like the PR-880)
  3. Auto Select mode which automatically selects between detectors based on the available signal.
The PR-680 is supplied with 4 Automated Measuring Apertures (1°, 0.5°, 0.25° and 0.125°) and an Automated Measure Shutter. Other hardware features include AutoSync® for automatically synchronizing to the source refresh rate insuring the utmost accuracy, a Secure Digital (SD) port for measurement storage, an External Trigger port allowing remote measurement activation from either a push button or peripheral device, and a long lasting rechargeable Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery.
Easy to Use
The PR-680 is controlled via the on-board, 2.25" x 3" high resolution, full color touch screen LCD display and 5-way navigation keypad for easy navigation. Following a measurement, the PR-680 displays data and color spectral graphs on the system display. The PR-680 design provides stand alone operation - no PC required. The PR-680 can also be controlled via the world famous SpectraWin™ 2 software over the USB or Bluetooth interface.
Flexibility
The unique design of the PR-680 makes tasks such as spectrally based colorimetry and high speed, low level luminance - required for display metrology - possible with a single instrument by supplying a wide dynamic range - 0.001 fL (photometer and 1° aperture) to 5,000,000 fL (spectral and 1/8° aperture) without using external neutral density filters. Since the Pritchard® viewing and measuring optics are shared by both detectors, tests can be performed without requiring realignment.

PProvides the capability of using the PR-680 as a high speed optical input (PMT signal) to a device such as an oscilloscope. The bandwidth is approximately 20 µsecs. Useful for tasks such as ON/OFF or gray level response time for LCD's. Includes a connector on the PR-680 and interconnecting cable. We've further enhanced the flexibility by adding 2 sensitivity modes (Standard & Extended) and 4 measurement speeds : Normal, Fast, 2X Fast, 4X Fast.

For applications other than luminance the PR-680 can be supplied with optical accessories such as a cosine receptor for illuminance, LR-127 LED Analyzer for testing LED's to CIE 127, fiber probe for remote non-line-of-sight testing, and a series of magnification lenses for small spot size analysis. The PR-680 also provides the capability for interactive display white point calibration (RGB software).
Connectivity
It's easy for the PR-680 to talk to the outside world - it comes equipped with USB and (optional) Bluetooth® wireless interfaces. It is supplied with text based, Remote Mode syntax and a driver that emulates an RS-232 interface (COM: port) making it a simple task to generate custom programming to perform specific tasks or for inclusion in an ATE environment. If needed, an RS-232 interface can be added to complement the standard USB.
