1. Introduction

1.1 General Description

UM-300/UM-301 series is a near infrared (NIR) CCD camera. This camera is four times more sensitive than the
conventional CCD camera at 945 nm wavelength. Smear is significantly reduced and dynamic range is much
greater than the current CCD cameras. Asynchronous reset allows the image to be captured at very high shutter
speed without smearing. The rotary switch located on the rear plate can easily change various shutter speeds for
asynchronous reset applications. The asynchronous reset input pinout is located on 12-pin connector.
AGC/MGC, Gamma 1.0/0.45, and Frame/Field mode selections are also available on the rear plate.
