[0027] Example 3 is a measurement method for a time response measurement system of a phototransistor, based on Example 2. The test principle and measurement method implemented include the following: The MCU measurement module is used to send control commands to various modules.

[0028] The MCU measurement module sends power-on parameters to DAC module one. DAC module one converts the digital signal to an analog signal and outputs it to a constant current source. The constant current source outputs the constant current set by the MCU measurement module to illuminate the light source. The MCU measurement module then sends power-on parameters to DAC module two. DAC module two converts the digital signal to an analog signal and outputs it to a constant voltage source. The constant voltage source outputs the constant voltage VCC set by the MCU measurement module to the collector (C) terminal of the test phototransistor (phototransistor) relative to ground. The voltage between the collector (C) and emitter (E) terminals of the test phototransistor is VCE. The voltage between the COM2 port and ground is VRL, where VRL = VCC - VCE. VRL, detected by the non-inverting input of the operational amplifier, is connected to the output of the operational amplifier to an adjustable capacitor, the non-inverting input of comparator two, and the non-inverting input of comparator two. The MCU measurement module then sends power-on parameters to DAC module three. DAC module three converts the digital signal to an analog signal, which becomes reference source one, and outputs it to the inverting input of comparator one. The MCU measurement module sends power-on parameters to DAC module four. DAC module four converts the digital signal to an analog signal, which becomes reference source two, and outputs it to the inverting input of comparator two. Reference source one at the inverting input of comparator one is set to 10% of VRL. It is compared with the voltage sampled at the non-inverting input of comparator one. If the sampled voltage is greater than reference source one, comparator one outputs a high level. Reference source two at the inverting input of comparator two is set to 90% of VRL. It is compared with the voltage sampled at the non-inverting input of comparator two. If the sampled voltage is greater than reference source two, comparator two outputs a high level. The MCU measurement module starts timing when comparator one outputs from low to high, and ends timing when comparator two outputs from low to high. The measured time is the rise time of the phototransistor. When comparator 2 outputs a high level and then a low level, the MCU measurement module starts timing. When comparator 1 outputs a high level and then a low level, the MCU measurement module stops timing. The measured time is the rise time (Fall Time) of the phototransistor. The test waveform is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 3 The detailed comparator circuit is shown. Reference source 1 is connected to the IN- port of comparator 1 through impedance matching resistor R1. The sampled voltages are connected to the IN+ ports of comparator 1 and comparator 2 through impedance matching resistors R2 and R5, respectively. Reference source 2 is connected to the IN- port of comparator 2 through impedance matching resistor R2. The output of comparator 1 is connected to the MCU through impedance matching resistor R3, and the output of comparator 2 is connected to the MCU through impedance matching resistor R6.

[0030] This utility model discloses a time response measurement system for phototransistors; it has a greater cost advantage than current production line equipment, greatly alleviates the cost pressure on packaging plants, lowers the testing threshold, and promotes the rapid development of the phototransistor industry.
