iStar Intensified CCD Camera

Features and Benefits

• USB 2.0 connectivity - Industry-standard plug-and-play, lockable and rugged interface Seamless multi-camera control from single PC or laptop.
• 5 MHz readout platform - Rapid frame and spectral rates for superior characterization of dynamic phenomena. Single readout amplifier for best image digitization uniformity.
• Comprehensive binning options - Crop & Fast Kinetic mode - Fully software-customizable binning sequences for highest spectral and image rates. Greater than 3,400 spectra/s continuous rates, up to 29,850 spectra/s in burst mode.
• High-resolution sensors and image intensifiers - Superior photon capture, with peak QE up to 50% and spectral coverage from 120 to 1,100 nm.
• High QE Gen 2 & 3 image intensifiers - Ultra lowjitter < 35 ps rms, built into the camera head for lowest available propagation delay - software-controlled multi input / output control for maximum timing accuracy. Maximum convenience for complex experiment setups integration
• True optical gating < 2 ns - Billionth of a second time-resolution for accurate transient phenomena study.
• Low jitter, on-board Digital Delay Generator (DDG^TM) - Highest gating timing accuracy with lowest propagation delay.
• Insertion delay as low as 19.1 ns - Minimum delay between experiment signal generation and actual image intensifier triggering.
• Comprehensive triggering interface - Software-controlled 3x triggering outputs with 10 ps setup accuracy for complex experiment integration.
• Intelligate^TM - Intelligent and accurate MCP gating for better than 1:108 shuttering efficiency in the UV.
