  • Calibration device for an optical detector and setting device for setting calibration points for the calibration device
    Patent number: 11785683
    Abstract: The present invention provides a calibration device for an optical detector comprising a light emitting diode 1, and an electronic circuit 3 for driving the light emitting diode 1, wherein the electronic circuit 3 is a constant current generator configured to supply a constant driving current to the light emitting diode 1 in the range of 0.5 to 25 ?A. Furthermore, the present invention provides a setting device for setting at least one calibration point for a calibration device as described above. The setting device comprises a light detector 51 configured to output a signal representing the light emission intensity of a calibration device under examination, a controller 53 for controlling the constant driving current of the calibration device under examination, and a calibration point setting means 55 for setting at least one calibration point for the calibration device under examination.
