Abstract
A measurement system comprises an optical detector, a plurality of power sources operable to provide different outputs, and a controllable circuit operable to couple a first selected one of the plurality of power sources to the optical detector. A programmable device is operable when each of the plurality of power sources is providing an associated power output to: (a.) obtain a first measurement from the optical detector while the first selected one of the plurality of power sources is coupled to the optical detector; (b) cause the controllable circuit to couple a second selected one of the plurality of power sources to the optical detector in response to the first measurement; and (c) obtain a second measurement from the optical detector while the second selected one of the plurality of power sources is coupled to the optical detector. Optical measurement methods are also disclosed.
