Driver circuit for CCD linear image sensor
C11165-01
For CCD image sensor
(S11155/S11156-2048-01)
The C11165-01 is a driver circuit designed for HAMAMATSU CCD image sensor S11155/S11156-2048-01. The C11165-01 can
be used in spectrometers when combined with the S11155/S11156-2048-01.
The C11165-01 holds a CCD driver circuit, analog video signal processing circuit (16-bit A/D converter), timing generator,
control circuit and power supply. The C11165-01 converts analog video signals from a CCD into digital signals and outputs
them. The USB connector (USB 2.0) provided as a standard feature easily connects to a PC for the C11165-01 control and
data acquisition. The C11165-01 also has a BNC connector for external trigger input and pulse output. The C11165-01 is
compact, lightweight and very easy to handle.
Application software (DCam-USB) that comes with the C11165-01 allows easy operation from a PC running on Windows 7
(32-bit, 64-bit). A function library (DCamUSB.DLL) included with the application software helps you to develop your own
software. This software is available with DLL to help you develop your own software programs under various developmental
environments.

Internal synchronous mode
(“INT” mode)
Specification
The power supply is turned off.
It is a standby state, in which the data acquisition is possible.
In this mode, the driver circuit sends the data to PC.
Data is acquired on the basis of the trigger timing generated by application software.
Data is acquired in synchronization with the external trigger signal input from the
External synchronous mode 1
Synchronous*7
BNC connector. In synchronization with an edge of the external trigger signal, data is

accumulated for the set integration time and is then output.
Data is acquired in synchronization with the external trigger signal input from the BNC
External synchronous mode 2
connector. Data is accumulated for a period equal to the pulse width of the external
(“EXT.LEVEL” mode)
trigger signal and is then output.
The gain value can be varied in the range of “1 to 3” with the step of 1. Default value is

"1".
The offset value can be varied in the range of “-255 to 255” with the step of 1. Default
