Sensors Unlimited – Goodrich ISR Systems has declared the launch of SU640KTS, which is a large-format indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) high-resolution shortwave infrared snapshot video camera.
The large format high resolution camera is ideal for solar applications like silicon ingot, wafer inspection and silicon blocking. Other applications of SU640KTS camera are machine vision of moving objects, full-field optical coherence tomography (OCT) at 1.04 µm, 1.31 µm, or 1.55 µm, integrated circuit microscopy, pulsed or continuous wave (CW) laser-beam profiling, sorting, inspection, thermal imaging at greater than 150°C through glass windows and hyper and multi-spectral imaging.
The SU640KTS camera system complies with all regulations of Conformite Europeene (CE) and the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) norms for conducted and radiated emissions, for electrostatic discharge (ESD) resistance and for immunity from such emissions. The CE mark assures that the camera has met all the demands for devices supplied to clients of European Union.
The SWIR camera features 640 x 512 pixel array with 25 µm pitch, incorporated non-uniformity corrections (NUCs), adjustable automatic contrast improvement and automatic gain control (AGC). Camera link compatibility for 12-bit digital imaging and EIA-170 analog video output are provided by the camera. Camera commands and controls can be availed by means of Camera link interface or through a distinct EIA232 interface, for further adaptability.
The power consumed by the camera is less than 2.5 W and its optional features include a C-mount 25 mm f/1.4 lens, Nikon 50 mm f/1.4 lens with an F-mount adapter, or a SWIR optimized 50 mm f/1.4 lens with the Goodrich 42 mm interface adapter.
The company will participate in SPIE’s Photonics West exhibition, which is scheduled to be held at the Moscone Center, San Francisco between January 25 and 27, 2011.
