Maxicam3002
Intensified Digital CCD Camera
The
MAXICAM3002
is an all-digital gated Intensified CCD Camera. The
MAXICAM3002
contains a GEN III Image Intensifier fiber
optically coupled to a progressive scan 1392(H) x 1040(V) CCD
operating at a 12-bit level. The camera is compatible with any
C-Mount lens made for a 1" TV Format.
The GEN III Image Intensifier has been selected to give the highest
response of any image intensifier in the
Visible to Near IR spectrum. This intensifier
can achieve over 35% quantum efficiency and a
light gain of 80,000. Other Photocathode
options are available for higher QE,
Extended Blue and Pinnacle performance. A UV
version is available with response from
200nm to 700nm.

The
MAXICAM3002 has been made to
operate completely from
computer control.
On a Windows or Macintosh
computer platform,
the computer controls all
functions such as
intensifier gain, intensifier
gating, gating delay,
CCD integration, camera gain
and black level
plus other image functions.
The
MAXICAM3002 comes complete
with a frame grabber, power supply
and C-View software ready to operate. The
all-new C-View is a PC based software program
for real-time viewing and image capture.
C-View includes an integrated camera control
panel which encompasses all camera control
functions including variable ROI readout
to provide faster frame rate without loss of
spatial resolution; 5 user programmable,
single-click application controls, plus TWAIN and Image
Pro drivers to facilitate ease-of-use
with popular imaging programs. The camera output
and controls are interfaced to the computer
interface via a single multi-pinned cable, which can
be configured for LVDS, Camera line or Fire wire
operation.
