This series of Cameras are the most
sensitive in the Spectronic Line. Suitable for demanding low light level spectroscopy. They use CCD full frame
detectors from Hamamatsu. The detectors are two dimensional arrays with pixel formats of
64 X 512 up to 256 X 1024. They provide digital outputs of electro-optical signals so
that, in conjunction with microprocessors or personal computers, evaluation of signals can
be readily implemented without the user having to possess specialized knowledge of
electronics.
PC interfaces available USB, RS232
and Parallel port.
Driver software and demonstration
software supplied.
The detectors are used in "line Binning"
mode". This
effectively produces a detector of just one line of 512 or 1024 pixels. This
results in very high sensitivity and very low noise.
