    Abstract: A sensor interface includes on-chip relaxation oscillator circuit and a PLL that operate cooperatively to generate a highly accurate clock signal on-chip using low-power components. A photodiode generates a current signal based on an optical signal that is representative of a sensor signal. An ADC that operates based on the highly accurate clock signal generates a digital signal based on the current signal generated by the photodiode, and a processor processed the digital signal to estimate sensor data within the sensor signal. Examples of characteristics that may be sensed can include environmental characteristics (e.g., temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, etc.) and/or biomedical characteristics (e.g., body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, etc.). In desired, an amplifier processes the photodiode-provided current signal before it is provided to the ADC. Also, one or more CDACs that generate feedback currents may be used to reduce noise sensitivity of the sensor interface.

    Abstract: A measuring device (40) for measuring an illumination property of an illumination system (12), which is configured for two-dimensional irradiation of a substrate (24) arranged in an illumination plane (21) with illumination radiation (20). Two differing measurement beam paths (52, 54) are formed in the measuring device, each arranged to guide the illumination radiation emitted by the illumination system onto a spatially resolving intensity detector (42) of the measuring device. A first (52) of the measurement beam paths is arranged to measure an intensity distribution in the illumination plane and the second (54) of the measurement beam paths is arranged to measure an intensity distribution in a pupil of the illumination system. The measuring device also includes an imaging optical unit (44) arranged in the first measurement beam path (52) such that the illumination radiation guided in the first measurement beam path passes through the imaging optical unit.

    Abstract: A method for measuring intensity distribution of light includes a step of providing a carbon nanotube array located on a surface of a substrate. The carbon nanotube array has a top surface away from the substrate. The carbon nanotube array with the substrate is located in an inertia environment or a vacuum environment. A light source irradiates the top surface of the carbon nanotube array, to make the carbon nanotube array radiate a visible light. A reflector is provided, and the visible light is reflected by the reflector. An imaging element images the visible light reflected by the reflector, to obtain an intensity distribution of the light source.
