Description
The TRiCAM Time-Resolved Intensified CMOS Camera is a cutting-edge imaging solution designed for both scientific and industrial applications that demand exceptional performance in low-light conditions, ultra-short exposure times, and frequency domain imaging. This advanced camera system is equipped with a fast CMOS sensor that is fiber-optically coupled to an image intensifier, ensuring optimal transmission efficiency and high sensitivity down to the single photon level. With an acquisition speed of up to 162 frames per second, the TRiCAM is engineered to deliver unparalleled imaging capabilities.
As the premier choice for ultra-fast imaging, the TRiCAM excels in both time-domain and frequency-domain applications. For time-domain imaging, the camera is integrated with a timing pulse generator and gate-unit, known as the TRiCAM G. This unit includes the LI-Capture software, which provides comprehensive control over gate width, gate frequency, delay, gain, and binning. Additionally, the TRiCAM G offers two synchronized TTL output signals for driving pulsed lasers or LEDs, enhancing its versatility in various imaging scenarios.
In frequency domain imaging, the TRiCAM M model supports gain modulation of 120 MHz and higher, facilitated by an external signal generator. This capability is powered by a single-chip digital synthesizer, ensuring very low phase noise and making the TRiCAM an integral component of the Lambert Instruments LIFA system for Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM). The camera's design is highly customizable, allowing it to be equipped with the image intensifier that best suits specific application needs. With a range of models available, the TRiCAM can cater to diverse requirements in spectral sensitivity, phosphor, spatial resolution, gain, linearity, minimum gate width, and gating frequency.
