Laser Receiver

Description

A dual purpose receiver designed for use with the
Lascells Dual Colour laser, the unit contains a planar chip
photodiode tied to a 1MHz amplifier for speed of light
calculations along with an audio amplifier for demonstrating
data transmission using light. The unit is powered by a 9V
DC supply (included) and has a built in speaker for audio
reception. The amplified audio is also brought out to 4mm
sockets on the front panel for observation or connection
to a secondary driver such as the Rubens tube. When
using the receiver for speed of light calculations the audio
amplifier is disabled with the signal brought to the front
panel only for monitoring using an oscilloscope.
