cooled 4MP sCMOS

The EHD SC2020UV-ITR series industrial USB3.0 camera, featuring the GSENSE2020BSI monochrome sCMOS sensor, is designed to capture high-resolution images with minimal noise. Here are some key features of this camera:

  1. Sensor:
    • GSENSE2020BSI: 4.0MP, 1.2″ frame, back-illuminated sCMOS monochrome sensor.
    • Pixel Size: 2048×2048 pixels with a size of 11×11µm, allowing for detailed imaging with good sensitivity.
  2. Cooling and Image Quality:
    • The sensor chip is equipped with a two-stage Peltier cooler, reducing the temperature to -40°C under ambient conditions, which significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and reduces image noise. This is particularly beneficial for capturing clear and precise images in low-light or high-dynamic range conditions.
    • The camera’s smart thermal design ensures efficient heat dissipation, preventing moisture accumulation, while the electric fan further accelerates cooling.
  3. Resolution and Bit Depth:
    • The camera supports high-resolution, low-noise imaging with 16-bit A/D conversion, guaranteeing detailed and accurate images.
    • It offers 8-bit, 11-bit, 12-bit, and 16-bit HDR output options for different imaging requirements, especially when dealing with high dynamic range scenes.
  4. Connectivity and Compatibility:
    • The camera utilizes the USB3.0 interface for fast data transfer, making it compatible with most industrial computer systems.
    • It also has 2 GPIO’s and Trigger IN/OUT, allowing for synchronized operation with other equipment in automated or experimental setups.
    • It includes a C-Mount, with an optional F-Mount adapter for flexible lens mounting options.
  5. Software and SDK:
    • The camera comes with the EHDView acquisition software for controlling and capturing images, and it supports a free Windows, Linux, and macOS SDK for integration into custom software applications.
  6. Global Reset Mode:
    • The camera features Global Reset Mode, which is useful for precise timing and synchronization in imaging systems.

This camera is well-suited for applications requiring high sensitivity, low noise, and high resolution, such as scientific research, industrial inspection, and quality control.
