High Performance Cooled CCD Camera System ANDOR an Oxford Instruments company System Features^ Apogee Alta F9000: Compact, 9.3 Megapixel CCD Ideal for OEM and astronomy applications, the Apogee Alta family has been a mainstay of high end imaging for many years, offering a wide range of full frame and interline CCDs. A USB 2.0 interface offers the convenience of simple, robust connection to PC. The Alta F9000 uses a very large format 9.3 megapixel full frame sensor with anti-blooming gates, ideal for applications requiring large field of view, such as astrophotography, sky surveys and radiology. Cooling down to 45oC below ambient results in a low dark current contribution. These features combine to make the Alta F9000 an ideal solution for applications requiring both a large field of view and optimal signal to noise ratio, such as astrophotography, sky surveys and radiology. • High Resolution Sensor 9.3 Megapixel sensor with 12 mm pixels delivers an exceptionally large field of view with high resolution. • Programmable TE cooling down to 45oC below ambient Ideal for detection of weak chemiluminescence or astronomy images, enabling long exposure acquisitions with optimized signal to noise ratio. • USB 2.0 interface Direct ‘Plug and Play’ simplicity of USB 2.0. • 16-Bit digitization High photometric accuracy. • High longevity shutter Shutter during readout and take dark reference frames - 63 mm. • Programmable I/O port Synchronization with intricate experimental set-ups. • Remote Triggering LVTTL input allows exposure to start within 25 microseconds of the rising edge of the trigger. • Focusing mode Faster readout option, ideal for focus optimisation. • Andor OEM optimisation Compact and robust, Andor integration support, Andor quality enhancement, Andor post-sale support.
