DE 10223201 C UPAB: 20030619 NOVELTY - The device has a primary detection diode (25) and an array of at least 2 secondary detection diodes (21A-24D) positioned within a detection window (15), with corresponding read-out circuits (35,30) for read-out of the primary detection diode and the secondary detection diodes at different read-out rates, for providing the intensity of an incident light beam and detection of data within the beam. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Also included are INDEPENDENT CLAIMS for the following: (a) am optical scanner device, an optical memory device, an operating method for an optical detection device USE - The device is used for detection of optical data in an optical scanner, a pick-up system for a compact disc or digital versatile disc player, or a receiver for an optical transmission path. ADVANTAGE - Eliminates need for precise adjustment of optical detection device relative to light beam
