The Broadcom handheld Qneo AFBR-S20N1N256 NIR spectrometer covers a wide wavelength range from 950 to 1700 nm. The Qneo spectrometer comes with a built in detector which is an uncooled InGaAs 256-pixel sensor array. The dimensions of 60 x 40 x 19 mm make it a compact device that is robust in industrial environments but with high optical performance. The Broadcom spectroscopy product AFBR-S20N1N256 offers reliable measurements as well as comprehensive onboard processing and evaluation for embedded solutions and mobile analysis devices. The Broadcom Qneo spectrometer has several digital interfaces for NIR measurements.

The optical spectrometry applications include Raman spectroscopy as well as analysis for environmental, forensic and water quality. It also carries out light measurements, Process control and monitoring and is used in Quality control.

The Broadcom application software WAVES and the software development kit (SDK) are available to download from Broadcom’s website.
