Andor C-RED One HgCdTe SWIR Camera

C-RED One is an ultra high-speed photon counting SWIR camera using a unique 320 x 256 pixels HgCdTe e- APD array with 24 µm pixel pitch. The sensor delivers unprecedented sub-electron readout noise, taking advantage of the e-APD noise free multiplication gain and non-destructive readout ability.

Features:

• 320 x 256 e-QPD MCT

• 24 µm pixel pitch

• SWIR 0.8 - 2.43 µm

• 70% QE wavelength from 0.9 to 1.7 µm

• Up to 3500 fps full frame

• Subelectron readout noise

The NEW Vibration Control System (VCS) (image above) enhances your C-RED One with greater image stability. The new active controller minimises compressor vibrations, ensuring a stable environment - essential when mounted on astronomical instruments or other highly sensitive systems.

C-RED One is capable of capturing up to 3500 full frames per second, without compromising on subelectron readout noise or very low background. The camera can also capture multiple regions of interest (ROI) readout allowing faster image rate (10's of kHz) while maintaining sub-electron readout noise.

C-RED One offers multiple readout modes:

• Global reset

• Rolling Reset

• Single read, CDS or multiple non destructive reads

C-RED One is an autonomous system: the sensor is placed in a sealed vacuum environment and cooled down to cryogenic temperature (90 K) using an integrated pulse tube with a high reliability. The vacuum regeneration is managed by the camera.
