CCD multichannel detector heads C7020/C7021/C7025 series Designed for front-illuminated CCD area image sensors The C7020/C7021/C7025 series are high sensitivity multichannel detector heads intended for use with front-illuminated CCD area image sensors (S9970/S9971/S9972/S9973 series). The C7020 series is designed for non-cooled CCD, while the C7021/C7025 series for thermoelectric cooled CCD. All of the C7020/C7021/C7025 series contain a low-noise driver circuit that operates on input of simple external signals. Mounting holes are provided on the front panel for attaching to other devices such as spectrometers. The C7021/C7025 series also include a highly stable temperature control circuit that cools the sensor to a preset temperature (Ts=-10 °C) as soon as the power is turned on. If the cooler fails and causes overheating, the internal protection circuit automatically turns off the power to ensure safety. Despite the compact size, the housing configuration is designed for good heat dissipation. As an option, HAMAMATSU also provides the C7557-01 controller for multichannel detector heads. Using the dedicated software for the C7557-01 allows easy control and data acquisition of a multichannel detector head from a PC. Features Applications Designed for front-illuminated CCD area image sensor *1 C7020/-02: for non-cooled type C7021/-02, C7025/-02: for TE-cooled types Fluorescence spectroscopy Line binning operation *2/area scanning operation Raman spectroscopy Other low light level detection Driver circuit for low noise CCD operation Highly stable temperature controller (C7021/-02, C7025/-02) Cooling temperature: fixed at -10 ± 0.05 °C Simple signal input operation Compact configuration Selection guide The table below shows CCD area image sensors applicable for C7020/C7021/C7025 series. Since C7020/C7021/C7025 series do not include a CCD area image sensor, so select the desired sensor and order it separately.

Compared to the IT-CCD, the FFT-CCD offers advantages of low dark current, a 100 % open area ratio and low image lag. *2: The FFT-CCD area image sensor can be operated like a linear image sensor having a large active area by transferring all the pixel signals in the vertical direction to the horizontal register (this is referred to as line binning). www.hamamatsu.com 1 CCD multichannel detector heads C7020/C7021/C7025 series Absolute maximum ratings Parameter Supply voltage (for digital circuitry) Symbol VD1 VA1+ VA1VA2 VD2 Vp VF - Supply voltage (for analog circuitry) Supply voltage *3 Digital input voltage C7020/-02 C7021/-02, C7025/-02 C7020/-02 C7021/-02, C7025/-02 Operating temperature Storage temperature Topr Tstg Min. -0.5 0 +10 -20 0 Typ. - Max. +7 +18 -18 +30 +7 +7 +14 VD (1, 2) +50 +35 *3 +70 +50 Unit V °C Electrical characteristics (Ta=25 °C, VD1=+5 V, VA1+=+15 V, VA1-=-15 V, VA2=+24 V, VD2=+5 V, Vp=+5 V, VF=+12 V, unless otherwise noted) Parameter High level Low level Digital input CLK frequency Data video readout frequency Start pulse width High level (Io=-6 mA) Low level (Io=+6 mA) Digital output Symbol VIH VIL fclk fv tst VIH VIL Min. +2.0 -0.5 1/fCLK +2.0 - Typ. - Max.
