Real Time Component Test System
Popular Applications
Ideal for in-process characterization, alignment,and packaging of components. The CTS is versatile enough to use with a variety of fixed and tunable components, including but not limited to fiber Bragg gratings, arrayed wave guides, optical filters and thin film mux/demux.
Revolutionary for observing shape changes in fiber Bragg grating mechanical sensors. FBG sensors are becoming more sophisticated. For many applications it is important to understand the both the central wavelength shift and the profile changes as the conditions of an FBG sensor change. The speed and resolution of the CTS make such measurements possible.

Description
The versatile Micron Optics Real Time-Component Test System (RT-CTS) provides rapid,accurate evaluation of components. The selfcontained system is composed of an erbium-doped fiber ring laser, an internal power monitor for normalization, a NIST-traceable absolute optical reference.
The two standard input channels allow simultaneous testing of two devices or the testing of one device in both transmission and reflection.
Power and wavelength are automatically calibrated with each scan in less than 200 ms.
The RT-CTS is expandable to 48 channels. All 48 devices can be measured in less than two seconds. C&L and PDL enhancements are also available.
Optical connections plus data collection and display can be distributed to remote locations throughout a manfacturing or test facility. This minimizes overall cost and maximizes flexibility.
Powered by dual processor architecture, the RT-CTS allows the user to sweep the wavelength range very rapidly, collect data and display the results during a manual or automated manufacturing process.
