Description
The SBIG STC-428-OEM Scientific CMOS Imaging Camera Evaluation Package represents a significant leap forward in imaging technology, offering a superior alternative to traditional CCD sensors. At its core is the high-performance Sony IMX428 imaging sensor, which boasts a remarkable 7 megapixel resolution. This sensor is designed to deliver high sensitivity and low noise, ensuring that every captured image is of the highest quality. The camera's electronic global shutter allows for rapid exposure times ranging from 0.001 to 3600 seconds, making it ideal for capturing fast-moving subjects with precision.
One of the standout features of the STC-428-OEM is its SmartCooling™ active temperature regulation system. This innovative technology maintains the sensor temperature with an accuracy of 0.1°C, ensuring high calibration stability and minimizing noise. The regulated two-stage cooling system achieves a delta of approximately -30°C, further enhancing the camera's performance in various environmental conditions. Additionally, the camera's high-speed USB 3.0 interface, which is also compatible with USB 2.0, facilitates quick data transfers, with full frame downloads possible in under 90 milliseconds, depending on computer speed.
The STC-428-OEM is designed with versatility in mind, offering customization options to suit specific application needs. Users can choose from a range of modifications, including mechanical shutters, filter wheels, and packaging adjustments. The camera is compatible with Nikon and Canon EOS lens adapters, providing flexibility in lens selection. Furthermore, the built-in StackPro™ feature allows for automatic in-camera sub-exposure stacking, enhancing dynamic range without increasing the processing load on the host computer.
For developers and engineers, the STC-428-OEM provides robust support with a multiplatform software API and sample code, making integration into various systems seamless. The Windows-based evaluation software further aids in assessing the camera's capabilities. With application engineering support available, users can confidently deploy this camera in a wide range of fields, from medical imaging to low-light industrial inspection. The SBIG STC-428-OEM is not just a camera; it's a comprehensive imaging solution designed to meet the demands of modern scientific and industrial applications.
