pco.1300

This high performance digital 12 bit CCD camera system is perfectly suited for life science and machine vision applications, where an excellent image quality and high offset stability is required. The pco.1300 has an remar- kable quantum efficiency of up to 65%. At the heart of the camera is an FPGA processor allowing for sophisticated control and accurate timing of the CCD and associated electronics. In addition a proprietary offset control algorithm has been developed which provides very high offset stability, re- gardless of ambient temperature or signal changes ensuring accurate and repeatable quantitative data over long periods of time. Binning, cooling, as well as other features of the camera can be selected and optimized to accomodate the user‘s application. The camera features excellent reso- lution (1392 x 1040 pixel), 12 bit dynamic range, exposure times from 5 µs - 1 hour, internal frame buffer for continuous image capture (64 MB min.), excellent low noise of 6 e
