X-ray HR CCD cameras
- Small pixel size less < 26 microns pixel size at the detector input
- Cooled CCD sensor with 55 degrees C delta T
- Software switchable 10 and 20 MHz scanning frequencies
- Small area sensor with taper input varying from 5.6 mm up to 40 mm diagonal
PSL has supplied X-ray High Resolution CCD cameras for the last 7 years to end users and OEMs. A selection of high responsitivity CCDs, combined with low noise characteristics, enables optimum photonic collection with best possible signal to noise ratio. Special read whilst expose mode allows 100% shutterless duty cycle and high sensitivity operation in low light level conditions.
