1 Description and Features The G3M715M camera possesses an exceptionally strong capability to capture infrared light (with a high QE value at 850nm). It also has a large full well capacity, high dynamic range, high sensitivity, and low readout noise among other advantages.
2.2 Sony IMX715 Sensitivity The sensor G Sensitivity of G3M715M is 2375mv with 1/30s. Its spectral sensitivity is shown in Figure 1. The sensitivity is measured with a testing standard lens with CM500S(t = 1.0mm) as an IR-cut filter and image at F8.0. If the image is...
2.3 12bit ADC and ROI The G3M715M has built in 12bit ADC. It also has 12bit output mode for hardware binning and smaller resolution. The camera also supports hardware ROI, and the smaller the ROI size is, the higher the frame rate is.
ATR3CMOS09000KPA Manual 2.7 Camera Performance Analysis Camera performance can be evaluated with e-/ADU, Read Noise, Full Well Dynamic Range. e-/ADU: The sensors found in cameras used for vision applications have pixels that convert incoming photons into Analog- electrons. Gain on a CCD /CMOS camera represents the conversion factor from electrons (e-) into digital counts, or Digital Units (ADUs).
