Electron Bombardment CCD Cameras C7190 DATA SHEET C7190-11W, -12W , -13W C7190-21, -23 Hamamatsu EB-CCD cameras use an innovative high gain sensor that puts advanced technology to work to obtain high gain images in very low light. This technology involves a special vacuum chamber in which electrons generated at the photocathode are accelerated by a high potential into a newly developed, back thinned, back illunimated CCD. This direct bombardment of the CCD by accelerated electrons provides high gain, high resolution images, with none of the problems associated with Micro Channel Plates which are used in other devices. The sensor in the EB-CCD is driven by low noise circuits and features MPP (Multi Pin Phase) technology to achieve good S/N ratios at high gain conditions and a long service life. Two different implementations of this technology are available. We offer a selection between a video rate camera with both analog and 10 bit digital output at 30 fps and a higher precision but slower frame rate model with software selectable 10 and 12 bit digitizers included. A selection of photocathode materials is available for tailoring these cameras to almost any application. This new technology is ideal for demanding applications such as genetic and bioscience research, materials research, laminar flow applications, and many physical sciences requiring the rapid acquisition of images at low light levels. ❚ FEATURES • Amplification gain of up to 1200 times (C7190-11W, -12W, -13W) • High S/N Ratio • Ultra-high sensitivity • Two types are available Dual scan digital type : C7190-11W, -12W, -13W Video rate digital type : C7190-21, -23 ❚ SPECTRAL RESPONSE CHARACTERISTICS Photocathode Photon Electron Accelerate Back thinned CCD Max.1200 times gain Supply voltage Quantum efficiency (%) ❚ SENSOR STRUCTURE 60 55 50 45 40 35 30 S-20(C7190-21) 25 20 S-20(C7190-11W) 15 10 5 0 200 300 400 GaAsP(C7190-13W,-23) GaAs(C7190-12W) 500 600 700 800 900 1000 Wavelength (nm) * This is typical, not guaranteed. ❚ SPECIFICATIONS C7190-23 C7190-21 Back thinned frame transfer CCD 680(H) × 1000(V) 658(H) × 490(V) 14 µm × 14 µm 8.96 mm × 6.72 mm / 2/3-inch format — 65,000 electrons (typ.) — Non-interlace 30 Hz Interlace 60 Hz C7190-13W C7190-11W C7190-12W Back thinned full frame transfer CCD 512(H) × 512(V) 512(H) × 512(V) 24 µm × 24 µm 12.3 mm × 12.3 mm / 1- inch format 15 electrons r.m.s.
