EMCCD Cameras
Kite EMCCD a -20 °C Scientific EMCCD
The digital KITE EMCCD camera, model KI247-CL, combines
high sensitivity, speed and high resolution. It uses a peltier
cooled Texas Instruments’ 658 x 496 pixels Interline Transfer
Impactron device which provides QE up to 53 %. It uses a 16
bit A/D converter and offers a standard CameraLink output.
Advantages
• 658 x 496 EMCCD sensor – optimum image resolution
in low light imaging applications
• B/W EMCCD technology – high sensitivity imaging
with 1000x on-chip gain
• 16 bit CameraLink output – provides wide dynamic
range
• 53 % QE from Virtual Phase sensor – optimum Photon
collection
• Frame Interline Transfer (FIT) – no mechanical shutter
required, less smear at shorter exposures
• High frame rate imaging – capture of fast events
