HR4-BREAKOUT Breakout Box

For easier access to a variety of functions found in the HR4000/HR2000+, USB4000, USB2000+ and QE65000 Spectrometers specify the HR4-BREAKOUT, a passive module that separates the signals from the spectrometer's 30-pin port to an array of standard connectors and headers.

The HR4-BREAKOUT is available for $289.

The Breakout Box includes a 30-pin HR4000-CBL-BB Ribbon Cable that connects the Box to the spectrometer.

The Breakout Box allows multiple interfaces to a spectrometer, such as:

  • External triggering

  • General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)

  • RS-232 interface

  • Light sources

  • Analog Input/Output

In addition to the accessory connector, the Breakout Box features a circuit board based on a neutral breadboard pattern that allows custom circuitry to be prototyped on the board itself. The Breakout Box receives its power from the spectrometer, which runs off of a PC via a USB port, or requires a separate 5-volt power supply when the spectrometer interfaces to a PC via the serial port. If you are wiring custom circuitry on the Breakout Box, you likely will need the USB-CBL-PS ($27) power supply (purchased separately).

The Breakout Box can be used with the following spectrometers:

  • HR4000 Spectrometers with serial numbers beginning HR4B
  • HR2000+ High-speed, High-resolution Spectrometer
  • QE65000 Scientific-grade Spectrometer
  • USB4000 Spectrometer (with the USB-ADP-BB adapter)
  • USB2000+ Spectrometer (with the USB-ADP-BB adapter)

This enlarged photo of the Breakout Box shows the connectors available.

 

This is an example of a setup with the HR4000 and Breakout Box.
