APPLICATIONS
q
Faint light observation under a microscope
q
Continuous imaging of high-speed moving objects
q
Kinetic changes in light intensity
These low noise/high frame rate camera systems maintain the
superb noise characteristic of the conventional cooled CCD cam-
era, while at the same time adding high speed.
In order to achieve both high speed and a low noise characteris-
tic, a progressive scan interline CCD is used, which eliminates
the need for a mechanical shutter. This means that problems
such as vibration caused by the mechanical shutter at high frame
rates, and the lifetime of the mechanical shutter, have been com-
pletely eliminated. In addition, taking advantage of the low dark
current characteristic of the CCD used in these models, cooling
can be suppressed to the minimum necessary level, and by
switching from a conventional forced cooling system to a system
which discharges heat by natural means, operation is significantly
improved.
