[0050] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a circuit connection diagram of an optical power detection device provided in an embodiment of this utility model. The optical power detection device includes a photoelectric conversion module 110, a pre-amplifier module 120, a post-amplifier module 130, an analog-to-digital converter 140, and a controller 150.

The analog-to-digital converter 140 is communicatively connected to the controller 150 via SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface).
[0051] The photoelectric conversion module 110 can be a photodiode (PD), which can convert laser signals with wavelengths in the range of 200nm to 1000nm into electrical signals. The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 140 can be a 16-bit multi-channel ADC chip such as the AD5541, and the external reference voltage of the ADC 140 can be set to 2.5V. The controller 150 can be an embedded microcontroller such as the STM32. Furthermore, the laser signal is an optical signal emitted by a laser, which can be an ion gas laser, an atomic gas laser, a molecular gas laser, or an excimer laser; this embodiment of the invention is not limited to this type.

[0053] It can be understood that the optical power detection device provided in this embodiment of the present invention amplifies the electrical signal converted from the laser signal through multiple stages by cascading two amplification modules, and adjusts the amplified signal to the signal acquisition range of the analog-to-digital converter 140, so as to improve the accuracy of signal acquisition and thus improve the detection accuracy of optical power.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 2, which is a schematic diagram of another circuit connection of the optical power detection device provided in this embodiment of the present invention. The preamplifier module 120 in the optical power detection device includes a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a first operational amplifier, and a correction module. The first operational amplifier can be a precision operational amplifier such as an OP27. Furthermore, the positive terminal of the power supply for the first operational amplifier can provide a voltage of +5V, and the negative terminal can provide a voltage of -5V.
[0055] Furthermore, one end of the first resistor R1 is electrically connected to the inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier, and the other end of the first resistor R1 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the first operational amplifier. One end of the second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier, and the other end of the second resistor R2 is grounded. The positive power supply terminal of the first operational amplifier is electrically connected to the positive terminal of the power supply, and the negative power supply terminal of the first operational amplifier is electrically connected to the negative terminal of the power supply.
[0056] The first terminal of the calibration module is electrically connected to the first adjustment terminal of the first operational amplifier, the second terminal of the calibration module is electrically connected to the second adjustment terminal of the first operational amplifier, and the third terminal of the calibration module is electrically connected to the positive power supply terminal of the first operational amplifier and the positive terminal of the power supply. This calibration module is used to drive the output voltage of the first operational amplifier to zero when the first operational amplifier is in a non-operating state.
[0057] The photoelectric conversion module 110 is electrically connected to the inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier. The subsequent amplification module 130 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the first operational amplifier.
[0058] In this embodiment, the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 are the gain resistors of the first operational amplifier, which amplifies the electrical signal through these two resistors. Furthermore, this embodiment also employs a calibration module to drive the output voltage of the first operational amplifier to zero when the first operational amplifier is not in operation. This ensures that the signal at the output of the first operational amplifier is the amplified signal when it is in operation, thereby reducing noise interference and improving the measurement accuracy of optical power.
[0059] Please refer to Figure 2. The correction module in the preamplifier module 120 includes a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor R4, and a potentiometer PR. The first fixed terminal of the potentiometer PR is electrically connected to one end of the third resistor R3, and the other end of the third resistor R3 is electrically connected to the first adjustment terminal of the first operational amplifier. The second fixed terminal of the potentiometer PR is electrically connected to one end of the fourth resistor R4, and the other end of the fourth resistor R4 is electrically connected to the second adjustment terminal of the first operational amplifier. The sliding terminal of the potentiometer PR is electrically connected to the positive power supply terminal of the first operational amplifier and the positive terminal of the power supply.
[0060] In this embodiment, by adjusting the sliding contact of potentiometer PR in conjunction with the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4, the voltages at the non-inverting and inverting input terminals can be adjusted to make them equal when the first operational amplifier is in a non-operating state. That is, by additionally compensating the input voltage, the offset voltage is offset, thereby ensuring that the output voltage of the first operational amplifier is zero when it is in a non-operating state. In other words, potentiometer PR allows for flexible adjustment of the first operational amplifier, making it suitable for various scenarios.
[0061] Please refer to Figure 3, which is another circuit connection diagram of the optical power detection device provided in this embodiment of the present invention. The preamplifier module 120 also includes a first capacitor C1, a fifth resistor R5, a second capacitor C2, and a sixth resistor R6.
[0062] In this configuration, one end of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier, and the other end of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the first operational amplifier. This can be understood as using the first capacitor C1 in conjunction with the first resistor R1 to set a cutoff frequency for signal filtering, thereby reducing noise interference and improving signal quality.
[0063] Furthermore, the output of the first operational amplifier is electrically connected to the subsequent amplifier module 130 via the fifth resistor R5. It can be understood that directly connecting the two operational amplifiers could lead to signal distortion and easily damage the subsequent operational amplifier. Therefore, this embodiment of the invention uses the fifth resistor R5 to achieve an indirect connection between the two operational amplifiers, thereby avoiding signal distortion and protecting the subsequent operational amplifier.
[0064] Furthermore, the negative power supply terminal of the first operational amplifier is grounded through the second capacitor C2, and is electrically connected to the negative terminal of the power supply through the sixth resistor R6. This can be understood as the second capacitor C2 acting as a decoupling capacitor for the negative power supply terminal of the first operational amplifier, and together with the sixth resistor R6, providing a stable power supply voltage to the first operational amplifier, thereby improving its stability and consequently enhancing the stability of the optical power detection device.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 4, which is a circuit connection diagram of an optical power detection device provided in an embodiment of this utility model.

Furthermore, the positive terminal of the power supply for the second operational amplifier can provide a voltage of +5V, and the negative terminal can provide a voltage of -5V.
[0066] Furthermore, one end of the eighth resistor R8 is electrically connected to the non-inverting input of the second operational amplifier, and the other end of the eighth resistor R8 is grounded. One end of the ninth resistor R9 is electrically connected to the inverting input of the second operational amplifier, and the other end of the ninth resistor R9 is electrically connected to the output of the second operational amplifier.
[0067] The first terminal of the adjustment module is electrically connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier, the second terminal of the adjustment module is electrically connected to the output terminal of the second operational amplifier, and the third terminal of the adjustment module is electrically connected to the analog-to-digital converter 140. This adjustment module is used to adjust the signal output from the second operational amplifier to the signal acquisition range of the analog-to-digital converter 140 and output a second signal.
[0068] In this embodiment, the eighth resistor R8 and the ninth resistor R9 are the gain resistors of the second operational amplifier, and the first operational amplifier amplifies the electrical signal through these two resistors. Furthermore, this embodiment also employs an adjustment module to adjust the signal output by the second operational amplifier to match the signal acquisition range of the analog-to-digital converter 140, thereby improving the accuracy of the signal acquired by the analog-to-digital converter 140 and consequently improving the measurement accuracy of optical power.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 4. The adjustment module in the preamplifier module 120 includes a tenth resistor R10 and an eleventh resistor R11. One end of the tenth resistor R10 is electrically connected to the non-inverting input of the second operational amplifier, and the other end is electrically connected to the analog-to-digital converter 140. One end of the eleventh resistor R11 is electrically connected to the output of the second operational amplifier, and the other end is electrically connected to the analog-to-digital converter 140.
[0070] In this embodiment, the output voltage of the second operational amplifier can be adjusted to the voltage acquisition range of the analog-to-digital converter 140 by adjusting the resistance values of the tenth resistor R10 and the eleventh resistor R11, thereby improving the accuracy of the signal acquisition by the analog-to-digital converter 140 and thus improving the measurement accuracy of optical power.
