The Yokogawa AQ6151B is a precision optical wavelength meter for the 900-1700 nm range, utilizing a Michelson interferometer and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) signal processing to deliver high-accuracy wavelength characterization. The instrument measures single and multiple wavelengths simultaneously (up to 1024), with wavelength resolution to 0.0001 nm and measurement times as fast as 0.2 seconds. It accommodates modulated light signals and optical filter characterization, making it suited for telecommunications, fiber optic system validation, and optical component inspection including DFB lasers, tunable lasers, optical transceivers, and WDM transmission systems.
