CoolSNAP ™ EZ Monochrome Datasheet HIGH PERFORMANCE EMCCD & CCD CAMERAS FOR LIFE SCIENCES 1392 x 1040 imaging array 6.45 x 6.45-µm pixels The CoolSNAP EZ Monochrome camera from Photometrics® delivers fast, high-resolution imaging for low-light life sciences applications. This moderately cooled CCD camera provides 12-bit digitization at 20 MHz. The fine pitch of the pixels is ideally matched to the resolution of optical microscopes. Primary applications Megapixel resolution and small pixels allow imaging of very Fixed-cell imaging fine detail, yet the pixels can be easily binned to utilize the full dynamic range and increase signal-to-noise performance. Advanced interline-transfer CCD technology provides high quantum efficiency, most notably in the near-infrared (NIR) High-speed, high-sensitivity readout 1392 x 1040 imaging array 6.45 x 6.45-μm pixels Resolves fine detail Ideally matched to optical microscope Electronic shuttering eliminates camera vibration and facilitates fast triggering Flexible binning and readout Increases signal-to-noise performance while increasing the frame rate High-bandwidth, uninterrupted data transfer with no dropped frames Quantifies bright and dim signals in the same image Thermoelectric cooling Low dark current allows longer integration times Enhanced quantum efficiency Provides higher sensitivity than typical interline cameras (especially in the NIR) Easily attaches to microscopes, standard lenses, or optical equipment Subcompact, fanless design Low profile allows easy integration Acquisition software Captures, analyzes, and saves high-resolution images PVCam Circular buffers Device sequencing Supported by numerous third-party software packages Real-time focus Precise integration with shutters, filter wheels, etc. Windows® XP/Vista 32 and Mac OS X Windows XP/Vista 32, Mac OS X, and Linux® (kernel versions 2.4 and 2.6.8) ©2012 Photometrics.
