UTC Sensors Unlimited Linescan 1024-LDH Digital Camera, 1024 pixels at 46,000 lps
The UTC Sensors Unlimited versatile LDH-1.7 Linear Digital High speed InGaAs Camera provides 14-bit digital capture into base format Camera Link® interface cards. It utilizes the new LC series of linear arrays, which feature double-sampling, integrate-whileread acquisition and low noise, delivering the high dynamic range demanded by these applications. The camera is available with 500 μm tall pixels for easy alignment in SD-OCT systems, or square 25 μm pixels for high-time resolution machine vision or for PS-OCT.
Features:
- Wavelength response over 0.8 μm to 1.7 μm
- 25 μm pixel pitch with aperture heights of 25 μm or 500 μm
- 1024 pixel arrays
- Over 46,000 lps for 1024 pixels
- Integrate-while-read snapshot acquisition
- 14-bit base Camera Link® compatible output and control
- Operating temperature range of -10 to +50°C
- High dynamic range and quantum efficiency Mounts easily to spectrometers
- Mounts easily to spectrometers
- Optional adapters for C-mount, F-mount or FD mount lenses
Applications:
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
- Agricultural and food product inspection
- Machine vision for inspection, and monitor of
- continuous processes
- High-speed spectroscopy for moisture or other molecular vibration bands in the 800-1700 nm range
- Telecommunications fiber and waveguide alignment
- Materials classification and sorting
- Remote ground sensing
