IMAGE SENSOR NMOS multichannel detector head C5964 series Incorporates a thermoelectrically-cooled NMOS linear image sensor C5964 series is a family of multichannel detectors developed for spectrophotometry in the UV to near infrared range (up to 1000 nm). C5964 series device incorporates a thermoelectrically-cooled NMOS linear image sensor (S5930/S5931/S8382/S8383 series), low noise driver/amplifier circuit and highly stable temperature control circuit. It also operates from simple external signal inputs. The image sensor is cooled to a preset temperature (Ts=0 ˚C) as soon as the power is turned on. Should the cooler fail and the device overheat, the built-in protection circuit automatically shut off the power. The housing is designed for compactness, yet offers good heart dissipation. Furthermore, mounting holes are provided on the front panel of the housing, permitting easy connection to a monochromator or other instruments Features Applications l Designed for use with a thermoelectrically-cooled NMOS l Multichannel spectrophotometry linear image sensor (S5930 series, etc.) l Spectrophotometer, colorimeter l Built-in driver/amplifier and temperature control circuits l Optical spectrum analyzer l Highly stable temperature control ensures a constant l Time-resolved photometry cooling temperature of Ts=0 ± 0.05 ˚C (at Ta=10 to 30 ˚C) l Operates from simple signal inputs l High sensitivity and wide dynamic range l Various models are available according to image sensor type ■ Selection guide C5964 series consists of the following models depending on the NMOS linear image sensor used.

C6536 consists of a driving an image sensor. The signals from the NMOS linear image sensor are converted into digital signals at high-speed and buffered in the internal memory. By hand shaking between the internal controller and the external computer, data can be transferred in parallel according to the computer's speed. M7089 interface board is an I/O board designed for IBM PC/AT compatible computers with an ISA bus slot. By inserting M7089 into the internal ISA slot of an IBM PC/AT compatible computer, data can be transferred between C6536 data processing unit and the PC. This allows analyzing the output signal from an NMOS linear image sensor on the PC or controlling the signal integration time of the NMOS linear image sensor from the PC. ● Power supply This power supply provides an NMOS linear image sensor and a C6536 data processiong unit with the necessary power of +5 V and ±15 V. ● Interconnection cables Various interconnection cables are provided for connecting a multichannel detector to peripheral units. ■ Handling precautions C5964 series is a precision device, so use sufficient caution when handling it. ● Never disassemble or modify the device as this may cause an operating failure. ● Protect the device from shocks such as drops or impacts as these may cause breakage. ● Avoid storing the device in high temperature and high humidity locations for long periods of time. ● Never block the air vents provided on the top and side panels of this unit during operation.
