Abstract
A photometer and associated method includes a source of radiation to be directed through a sample and a detector stage configured to measure radiation after passing through the sample. A voltage follower circuit is connected to the detector and is configured to provide an output signal which varies as a function of the detector output voltage and which varies as a function of the ambient temperature. A processing subsystem is configured to determine a temperature compensation factor from the voltage follower circuit output signal.
