Sensitive Cameras

pco.1600

This high dynamic 14bit cooled CCD camera system comprises advanced CCD and electronics technology. With the new approach to integrate the image memory (camRAM) into the camera itself, it enables unmatched fast image recording with 160MB/s. The system features thermo-electrical cooling (delta vs. ambient -50”ĘC), a superior high resolution (1600 x 1200 pixel) and low noise (down to 12e- rms). It consists of a compact camera with an external intelligent power supply. The image data are transferred via customer selectable standard data interfaces to a computer (IEEE 1394 (”°firewire”±), camera link). The available exposure times range from 5„ģs to 49days (500ns opt.). This digital CCD camera system is perfectly suited for low light camera applications like fluorescence imaging and microscopy.
