UVA Dosimeter – interest check and ideas

2013-10-03 by william casselberry

If design and code was available, would you build one? What features should it have?
 
Uses
  • Check your safe light
  • Check your light box
  • Check your photoresist
  • Share results with group
  • Consistent results regardless of light source
  • Use the sun
 
Design ideas
  • Battery powered
  • Thin sensor at end of FFC (fit under glass)
  • Display can be pointed in any direction
  • Display dose in mJ/cm^2
As for the photodiode, I thought that the ML8511 would work well. It outputs 1.0v at 0 mW/cm^2 (no UV light) with constant slope to 2.8v at 15 mW/cm^2 (lots of UV light).
