Product Details
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 160 MB/s. The system features thermoelectrical cooling (delta vs. ambient -50 °C), a superior high resolution (1600 x 1200 pixel) and low noise (down to 10 e- 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, GigE Vision, USB 2.0). The available exposure times range from 500 ns to 49 days. This digital CCD camera system is perfectly suited for low light camera applications like fluorescence imaging and microscopy. Color and monochrome image sensor versions are available.
