Abstract
A method of adjusting the sensitivity of stabilizing an optronic fuse system, which includes a controller, and, as a receiver, an avalanche photodiode (APD). In order to avoid adjustment of an analog electronic system with potentiometers, laser trimming or individual resistor fitment, the controller ascertains the temperature of the APD in such a way that the sensitivity of the APD corresponds to its reference sensitivity at any temperature.
